Stixo Signage Supplies do not only sell products, they sell top standard service as well. Making themselves available for their customers during the lockdown period was a top priority for them, no matter what requirements were needed to make it possible. This article appears in the latest Sign Africa Journal.
2020 was tumultuous in every possible sense. In fact, there has not been a year quite like this that has presented as many challenges and established a fresh concept of ‘new normal’. The sudden worldwide surge of the Covid-19 pandemic has brought every single country to its knees in so many ways. On the business front, almost every business, if not all, were affected to quite a large extent. In many cases, well established companies and so many relatively new companies had to close their doors for good, due to the dreadful impact suffered during these times.
Stixo Signage Supplies was also faced with many challenges from the onset, as the hard lockdown Level 5 kicked in. They had many shipments stuck on the waters, held in storage or stopped at ports. Being a company that was able to supply a service to the essential business sector, supply and demand became very challenging. However, due to their concept and vision of always having surplus stock, they managed to assist many of their customers, old and new, during their time of desperation.
‘At Stixo, we do not only sell products, we sell top standard service as well. Making ourselves available for our customers during the lockdown period was a top priority for us, no matter what requirements were needed to make it possible,’ said Asif Sidik, Managing Director, Stixo.
The company firmly believes in being proactive in all they do. It is one of the main pillars upon which it is built. During the lengthy lockdown, the company found themselves with a little more time to ponder and take things into perspective to plan for the future, both short and long term, with this ‘new normal’.
As restrictions eased, Stixo started putting their ideas into action as their stock started coming in consistently, and they found themselves at the forefront of signage companies that were fully stocked and ready to serve the signage industry. They also expanded their infrastructure during this time by extending their warehousing space by threefold to accommodate their full range of stock items.
Stixo Signage Supplies are proud to announce that they will soon be launching their new walk-in store — a brand new sales facility to cater for all requirements and orders, be it face-to-face, phone or email — and a full product showroom to showcase their impressive range at their head office in Crown Mines, Johannesburg. The idea behind this is to provide a one-stop shop concept to their valuable customers, who will be able to acquire an impressive range of signage and branding equipment supplies as well as a range of widely known alternative digital printing inks that will be launched soon.
‘As we move forward in 2021, we would like to assure our customers of our unwavering commitment to bringing them the best quality products with the widest range at the best prices. To all our highly valued clients, we at Stixo would like to thank you sincerely for your much valued loyal support and patronage. We wish you a successful, busy and prosperous year for 2021!’ concluded Sidik.
