POMPANO BEACH, Fla. — June 22, 2026 — FASTSIGNS® of Pompano Beach, a locally owned and operated sign and graphics provider, is under new ownership. Siblings Katherine and Elias Arama officially acquired the existing resale location on June 1, combining more than 15 years of industry-leading graphic design experience with advanced software engineering to bring innovative digital and physical signage solutions to the local business community.
Katherine Arama is a seasoned visual communications professional with an 11-year history within the FASTSIGNS network. An award-winning designer recognized for excellence in outside sales and customer solutions, her transition to franchise owner represents a natural evolution of her career.
"Having managed teams, navigated vendor relationships and overseen backend expenses for a long time within the network, stepping into the ownership role feels like a natural transition," said Katherine Arama. "The franchise model is incredibly attractive because FASTSIGNS is always there to back us up. No matter the question, we know we have the corporate network's full support as we lead this center into its next chapter."
Elias Arama joins the business as a partner and co-owner, bringing a robust background as a software developer specializing in high-performance APIs, enterprise systems, and legacy modernizations. The siblings have previously collaborated on multiple digital signage initiatives, combining Elias’s technical expertise in interactive digital signs with Katherine’s creative direction.
"Our unique competitive advantage lies in how perfectly our skill sets complement each other," Katherine Arama said. "Elias's background as a software engineer balances seamlessly with my graphic design and industry experience. Together, we are looking to create forward-thinking visual solutions that will help our clients and the wider industry grow."
As part of their forward-looking business strategy, the Aramas plan to heavily integrate cutting-edge technology into their daily operations.
"I spend a lot of time focused on personal growth and keeping up with AI developments," Katherine Arama noted. "Technology moves incredibly fast, and we need to grow with it. We are looking forward to implementing AI directly into our internal procedures and center operations to maximize efficiency for our clients."
The sibling co-owners are highly focused on community immersion and local economic development. Their future plans include joining the local chamber of commerce and participating in multiple regional organizations.
"We want the community to know that we are here to fully support them in all of their visual communications needs," said Katherine Arama. "My core philosophy as a leader is focused on growth. Not only do I want to expand our business and teach our sales team everything I've learned, but I am to foster personal growth for our staff and give back to the local organizations that make Pompano Beach thrive."
