From Lonsdale Street retailers and Dandenong Market traders to manufacturers and warehouses across the south-east industrial heartland, Signforce designs, manufactures and installs custom signage for Dandenong’s diverse business community. Family-owned, locally serving since 1982.
Dandenong is one of Melbourne’s most established commercial centres. The Lonsdale Street retail strip, Dandenong Market, Dandenong Plaza, the Central Dandenong renewal precinct, and the surrounding industrial heartland from Hammond Road through to South Dandenong all make this one of the busiest signage markets in the south-east.
That mix is why Dandenong signage isn’t one-size-fits-all. A multilingual restaurant on Lonsdale Street has different requirements to a manufacturer on Hammond Road or a wholesaler in the Dandenong South industrial estate. We’ve been working with Dandenong businesses since 1982, and we know what the area actually needs.
Dandenong falls under the City of Greater Dandenong, with its own lodgement system, zoning rules and approval timelines, separate from Casey, Frankston or the Mornington Peninsula Shire. We’ve worked through Greater Dandenong approvals hundreds of times, including for signage in the Activity Centre zone, industrial precincts and the main retail strips.
Dandenong is one of Australia’s oldest and largest manufacturing centres. We’re not talking about small estate units, we’re talking about full-scale factories, wholesale operations and serious B2B businesses. The signage that suits a Lonsdale Street café isn’t the same as what works for a 5,000 square metre warehouse on Greens Road. We do both.
Dandenong businesses regularly need bilingual or multilingual signage, culturally specific graphics, and design that speaks to multiple language audiences in one frame. From Vietnamese restaurants to Afghan grocers, Sri Lankan bakeries to Indian retail, we produce signage that gets the typography, layout and translation right, not just the English version.
Central Dandenong has been undergoing major urban renewal for years. New retail, new offices, new tenancies and new architectural standards. Signage here needs to balance visibility from a busy main road with the design standards that come with the redevelopment overlay.
We provide a full range of signage solutions for Dandenong businesses, from multilingual shopfronts and shop-strip retail through to full industrial pylons, building wraps and warehouse signage programs.
Exterior signage for Lonsdale Street retailers, the Activity Centre redevelopment zone, and factories and warehouses across the industrial corridor. Built to handle the wear of a busy regional centre.

Every industry has different signage requirements. We create signage solutions tailored to visibility, branding, customer engagement and long-term performance across the full range of Dandenong businesses.
The signage work we regularly deliver for Dandenong businesses covers a wide range: illuminated and multilingual shopfront signage for retailers along Lonsdale Street and around the market precinct, complete vehicle wrap fleets for logistics operators and manufacturers, building-mounted signage and large freestanding pylons for factories and wholesalers across the industrial corridor, full retail fitout signage for tenants in Dandenong Plaza and the Activity Centre redevelopment, and internal office signage for corporate, medical and professional service providers.

In most cases, yes. Greater Dandenong requires permits for illuminated signs, freestanding pylons, signs above a certain size, and signage on properties within the Activity Centre zone or industrial precincts. The process is separate from neighbouring councils, with its own lodgement requirements and timelines. We manage the full permit application for you, including engineering certificates and any required council correspondence.
Yes, this is one of our core specialties in Dandenong. We regularly produce bilingual and multi-language shopfront signage, illuminated signs and window graphics in Vietnamese, Khmer, Chinese, Arabic, Hindi, Tamil, Sinhala and many other scripts. Typography, layout and balance between languages all matter, and we work with clients to make sure the translation reads correctly and the design treats each language with the care it deserves.
Dandenong signage costs vary widely depending on size, materials, multilingual requirements and installation complexity. As a rough guide: shopfront signs typically start around $1,500 to $3,000, illuminated displays and freestanding pylons run $5,000 to $15,000+, and full vehicle wraps sit in the $4,000 to $8,000 range. Every quote is itemised and transparent. Call (03) 5977 5844 for a free on-site assessment.
Most Dandenong projects take 2 to 4 weeks from design approval to installation: roughly 3 to 5 days for design and approval, 1 to 2 weeks for Greater Dandenong council permits (longer during peak times or for Activity Centre zone work), 5 to 10 days for fabrication, and 1 to 2 days for installation. Multilingual projects may add a small amount of design and proofing time to get the translation right.
