Multi Site

A practical route for multi-site lightbox roll-outs across South Africa, written for teams coordinating more than one location.

How Multi Site works across the week

Multi Site is built for lightbox roll-outs across more than one branch, store or venue in South Africa. It helps keep the frame specification, graphics and installation approach consistent from site to site.

Multi-site roll-outs start by locking one frame spec that can repeat across every branch. Sizes, power access, wall build, ceiling suspension points, and trading restrictions need checking before graphics are printed in quantity. Conditions differ between inland stores, coastal centres, and expo venues, so the install method must suit each location without changing the overall look.

A first round of site images prevents avoidable mismatches later in the programme. Photos of the wall, shopfront, bulkhead, or hanging position help identify cable routes, fixing surfaces, and access limits before any frame leaves dispatch. Keep one record per site so replacements and graphic changes follow the same layout months later.

Roll-out pack for every branch

Each location can be referenced against one agreed standard for frame size, fabric graphic, wiring, and mounting detail. That gives store fit-out teams, centre management, and installers a single version to work from instead of conflicting notes. For retail and expo use, consistency across the set matters more than extra variations that complicate ordering.

Before widening the schedule, match each branch to its wall type, hanging hardware, and power source, then confirm the print count against the final site list. Check aluminium sections, corner joins, transformers, suspension kits, and packed graphics before collection or dispatch. Lightbox quotes are built from the wall size, the frame depth and whether the unit is single or double sided.

  • One specification carried across multiple locations
  • Site photos logged before print allocation
  • Branch list tied to each display size

Checks for South African roll-outs

Programmes often need to work around OR Tambo freight timing, Sunnyrock dispatch windows, shopping centre access rules, and after-hours installation permits. Some branches may have existing wiring, old frames, or previous branding elements that affect the new layout. Separate urgent replacements from the broader national or regional roll-out so stock and graphics are allocated correctly.

At coastal sites, salt in the air can leave residue on aluminium profiles and printed fabric, so cleaning intervals usually need to be tighter. Inland branches often pick up more dust on diffusers and frame edges, especially near busy entrances and stock movement areas. Illuminated checks are best done when the power supply at each store is stable, because intermittent outages can hide uneven lighting or a failed section.

What to send for rollout planning

Include the site list, quantities, store names, city, mounting method, and any deadline linked to a launch or promotion. Photos should show the full display area as well as a closer view of power points, hanging positions, or existing frames. Note whether each branch needs a wall box, freestanding unit, or suspended lightbox.

Record the final install detail for each location while access requirements and fixing points are still fresh. That document helps when a fabric graphic is reprinted, a frame is moved, or a branch requests the same format again. Keep it with purchase records and visual references so later checks are based on the correct site information.
