OUR HISTORY
Originally bought at a sheriff’s sale in 1934 by Russell Widmer and his son Ed, the sign company began in a one car garage. During the early 1980’s, Widmer Sign moved into the former Park Outdoor Advertising building on Amelia Avenue. Now, four generations later, Widmer continues to grow with the demands of the business community. In 2007, we purchased the property across the street and have expanded once again with the renovations of an existing building and a new structure to increase our total production area to over 15,000 square feet. Widmer Sign has all the necessary equipment and expertise to plan, design, manufacture, install and service signs for every size business and budget.
OUR MISSION
is not to be the biggest sign company, but to always provide the best sign for our customers. We would like to think that we help organizations get greater visibility through a better designed sign. All of our employees have over 10 years experience in the sign industry and their talents shine in the end product. We work to establish long term relationships with our customers and to provide a stable, enjoyable workplace.
TESTIMONIALS
“Todd and Jenny are what make this area the envy of many. Hard working, dedicated small business owners that put their customer first! When we engaged them for a major sign project, they provided a well planned execution strategy that was effective. We continue to count on their expertise today.” Jerry Champi, FNCB
“Todd and Jenny are the most creative team that I have ever done business with. They can perform vanilla or outside the box thinking requests with ease. They have met or exceeded every time line and performance goals that I were set before them. Most importantly, they are fantastic people to deal with. Their word is as good as gold and will always steer you in the right direction. They work together extremely well and have fun doing it. You can only have fun right with them. I truly loved every minute spent with them and consider them a life long friend. Todd and Jenny created and installed 6 exterior signs for my stores in NY and PA. They were recommended by a well respected business partner and they lived up their recommendation. ” Steve Ross, MaineSource
“Our company has over 35 locations in 13 states and a vast knowledge of sign manufactures and installers from those various areas of the country. When we stumble on a “superb” company, like Widmer Sign Company, in Scranton, PA, we cannot refrain from tooting their horn. From the first meeting on design alternatives, to the final moments of install, McCarthy Flowers were overwhelmed with the professional service and products. Not only did they please me and my staff in the two buildings they just finished, the public has responded with kudos as well. Todd and Jenny are a “family business” with high standards and relentless energy. It was a pleasure for our “family business” to connect. We will be not only singing their praises, but using them again and again in future locations. ” Brian McCarthy
“AAA North Penn has worked with Todd & Jenny for many years. Todd & Jenny are wonderful people to work with and their service is outstanding and professional. They will work one on one with you with your project and see it through to the end and then some. One item AAA purchased is a stand up AAA outdoor digital lighted sign which you can see for blocks. We display the AAA logo so Members can see us for blocks and we are able to display AAA specials and other advertising items. You want the best and professional sign service, talk to Todd & Jenny at Widmer Signs.”
“Jenny and Todd are hands down the best sign company in our area. When I opened my pharmacy, they were always prompt, courteous and professional. Jenny’s vision and creative thinking offers an array of excellent ideas for you to choose from. I actually look for “signs” to make so I can have them do more work for me. They have provided me with many different types of services: channel letters, new faces for an existing sign, see thru window designs, vinyl signage, parking signs, interior vinyl signage, banners, etc. If you need anything done-they do it. And they do it better than anyone at an affordable price. They have earned my business, let them earn yours you will not be disappointed.” Tom DiPietro, DePietro’s Pharmacy

I am a stickler for quality! Finding the right sign company to use for my new pastry cafe was a mission that I took very seriously. I could not be happier with the beautiful job that Jenny and Todd created for me. They listened to everything I had to say and the finished product was exactly how I had imagined. Their high quality work, prompt service, and attention to detail is unparalleled.” Susan Herlands, My Mothers Delicacies
Being in a historic building we had limited options as to signage outside of our storefront. Jenny and Todd came up with very classy and historically fitting signage for the building’s exterior that was easily approved by the Historical Society. When it came to the signage for our storefront window that falls outside of any restrictive regulations, we wanted something unique. We came to Jenny and Todd with an idea for a lit sigh that jumps out at you. They came back to us with a clever sample of a clear acrylic sheet with our logo routed out and an LED strip on the top edge of the sign. The result is spectacular and attention getting , everyone looks! Our logo and name are illuminated with a glowing edge outline that fits our Hot Yoga Studio Beautifully. Great price, the service and insight is top notch, the installation was fast and well done, and we would recommend Widmer Sign Company to anyone. Thank you Todd and Jenny! John and Lara , Steamtown Yoga”
