History
Established in 1966.
Display Sales started with our founder driving from town to town selling Christmas decorations to the small towns in the seven state area. A reputation of quality and service travels quickly between towns and soon we had a small telephone sales staff that has grown each year. As more towns want to "dress up" for the holidays with pole decorations from Display Sales we have grown to have a large staff and now conduct most of our business by phone, email and the Internet. This is the way our 21-century customers want to do business. The small town of forty years ago doesn't exist any more. There certainly are towns with smaller populations but they conduct business in the same way large towns do.
Today banners are everywhere. People like the look of avenue banners. They are one of the most economical ways to dress up a community or private property. Banners add warmth, welcome, celebration and information to the environment. Who would have thought a piece of fabric could do so much?
