Turbo Images has been a market leader in vehicle graphics since 1993 primarily in trailer and motorcoach market segments and has grown into a leading national provider in both Canada and the U.S.

“We entered the public transit segment three years ago and have enjoyed very good success over that period working with customers to enhance their vehicle graphics and brand messaging,” said Pier Veilleux, Turbo Images’ president and CEO. “With our latest investments of over $2 million in state-of-the-art technology and fabrication production equipment, combined with today’s hire of industry leader Patrick Scully, we are well positioned for continued growth.”

Turbo Images further invested in 2020 by acquiring Lettrapub/Team Coach Imaging, despite the economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The company now includes 130 team members focused on partnering with customers across North America for their fleet brand messaging needs. Turbo Images plans to aggressively grow in the coming years in both the U.S. and Canada with a particular focus on the public transit market segment.

“I am honored and energized to be joining the Turbo Images team,” said Scully. “I have known Pier Veilleux and Turbo Images for over 25 years and have always held them in the highest regard for their quality products and services and dedication to excellence. We share these same values as well as the overall vision for the North American market potential for the company and its customers. I look forward to meeting with customers to showcase the capabilities of Turbo Images as the industry’s vinyl vehicle wrap expert and how we can mutually partner with customers to enhance their brand, environmental, and special event marketing messaging on their vehicles.”
