I Saw the Sign: Futura Signs & Designs Celebrates 31 years in Riverview

Art has been a passion for Terry Wenarchuk from a young age. As a child he loved art, he went on to study graphic design and IT, and as the owner of Futura Signs & Designs he counts himself lucky to get to be creative and do what he loves every day. 

In 2009 Terry and his family moved to Riverview from the West Coast in search of a friendly community in which to raise his kids. As fate would have it, when he walked into Futura Designs to print his business cards, he fell into conversation with the owner and discovered they were ready to sell. 

“I bought in right away,” says Terry. “I invested in more equipment to continue to grow the business. Now in addition to designing and printing business cards, signage, and banners, we do vinyl wrapping on trailers, trucks, cars, and vans, as well as window tinting and decals.”

Terry’s son Walker also works at the small, family-run business, and Futura Signs & Designs prides itself on the relationships they build and the mutual respect that business owners have for each other. There was a sense of belonging that grew from Terry’s initial feelings when he first arrived in Riverview over 10 years ago.

“Our customers that we have been serving for many years are like family to us, and it’s great to see them come into our shop to catch up,” says Terry. “I remember the day we arrived in Riverview and saw all the trees and hills. I knew then that this was going to be a beautiful place to live, grow my family, and run a business.”

There is a small-town charm to Riverview that is both endearing and inspiring to Terry and his family. He has developed a particular affinity for the Riverfront Trail and looks forward to Light Up Riverview every year.

“In Riverview, we look after our community, and it shows. From the maintenance done by the Town to the way that neighbours take care of each other, this has been a wonderful place to own a business,” says Terry.

Whether you need a refresh of your business cards or promotional materials for your vehicle, you can count on Terry and his team at Futura Signs & Designs to deliver a thoughtful, quality product that will meet your needs and support the Riverview small business community.
