Design for Croydon businesses
Croydon is one of outer London's biggest office centres, with towers around East Croydon station, the Home Office at Lunar House and national firms such as Superdrug based in the borough. That office economy needs a surprising amount of design: tender documents, recruitment adverts, internal reports, presentation templates and staff headshots that look like they belong to the same company.
The Purley Way corridor is a different world. Retail parks, trade counters, builders' merchants and car dealerships line the road, and they need large-format work: fascia signs, pull-up banners, vehicle livery, A1 posters for the counter and product photography for online catalogues. Signage has its own rules. Artwork has to be built at the right scale, usually as vector files in AI, EPS or PDF so it stays sharp at several metres wide, and we check the sign maker's spec before supplying it. Our banner and signage design page covers the detail.
The town centre is still changing. Boxpark Croydon brought street food and events next to the station, Fairfield Halls reopened as an arts and conference venue, and Croydon was London Borough of Culture in 2023. Events and venues need posters, programmes, social media graphics and event photography. Croydon has also had a start-up and tech scene for more than a decade, and young companies usually want a brand identity, a pitch deck and website graphics before they want print.
Typical Croydon projects:
- Brand identity packs and pitch decks for start-ups
- Signage, vehicle graphics and counter posters for trade businesses
- Report, tender and presentation templates for office-based firms
- Event posters, programmes and photography for venues
- Product photography on white for trade and retail catalogues
Design is done remotely from Mansfield, so a Purley Way merchant and a start-up near East Croydon pay the same design prices. Shoots in Croydon include travel, quoted before booking.

Yes. dijitul designs shop fascias, banners and van livery as scalable vector artwork built to your sign maker or wrap installer's template. Simpler items fit the £45 an hour + VAT design rate, while full livery is quoted as a fixed price. We can also arrange printing and fitting on a separate quote.
Can you make a pitch deck for a Croydon start-up?
We design pitch decks and presentation templates in PowerPoint, Google Slides or Keynote, with master slides so your team can add content without breaking the layout. Decks are priced at £45 an hour + VAT or as a fixed quote. Many start-ups pair this with a brand identity pack from £395 + VAT.
Do you photograph products for online catalogues in Croydon?
Yes. Product photography starts from £25 + VAT per image, shot on a clean white background and cropped to your catalogue or marketplace sizes. For larger ranges we can shoot on location at your premises, with travel from Mansfield quoted first, or you can post smaller items to us.
