ABOUT EMPIRE

30 years of signs, lighting & graphics

Since 1996, Empire Graphics has served Maryland, Washington D.C., Virginia and Delaware — built from the ground up on referrals for the quality of our work.

Empire Graphics was founded in Accokeek, Maryland with a straightforward goal: be the one vendor a business can trust for every sign and every vehicle. Decades later, that's still the job.

We design, fabricate and install electric signs, LED message centers, monument signs, vehicle wraps and large-format graphics for commercial clients across the DMV and Delmarva. Our designers, installers, project managers and permitting specialists work as one team, licensed and insured in every state we serve.

Our shop sits on MD Route 210 — Indian Head Highway — in Accokeek. Illuminated sign fabrication and large-format print production happen under one roof, so the team that designs your project also builds it and installs it.

WHO WE WORK WITH

Built for teams that need one accountable vendor

Facilities & property managers

Exterior monument, channel letter and wayfinding signage — engineered, permitted and installed, then serviced.

Multi-location brands

Consistent storefront signage and recurring service across every location under a single contract.

National sign companies

A licensed, insured Mid-Atlantic install and service partner with storage for staged product.

Fleet managers

Multi-vehicle wrap and lettering programs delivered in consistent batches with minimal downtime.

Municipalities, schools & churches

LED message centers, campus monuments and landmark signage built for heavy public use.

Small businesses

From your first storefront sign or wrapped van to a full rebrand — no job too small.

ONE VENDOR, START TO FINISH

One team manages your project from survey to sign-off.

Most sign projects involve a fabricator, an electrician, a crane company and a permit runner. Empire handles all of it under one contract — one project manager, one schedule and one company accountable for the result. National sign companies trust us to manage installs for their own clients.
