With over 400 branches across the UK, CEF needed a print partner who could keep their brand switched on everywhere. From everyday branch print to bold, large-format event graphics, AlphaGraphics UK stepped in to simplify print, energise processes, and keep CEF’s brand looking sharp nationwide.
AlphaGraphics UK partnered with City Electrical Factors to bring clarity, consistency and control to print across a complex nationwide network. With over 400 branches to support and a flagship event in CEF Live to deliver, the challenge wasn’t just about producing great print, it was about managing scale, speed and seamless execution without compromising the brand.
This case study explores how a centralised, end-to-end print solution helped unify CEF’s visual identity across every touchpoint. From everyday branch materials to high-impact large-format graphics, discover how strategic thinking, expert production and meticulous logistics transformed print into a powerful, reliable asset – streamlining processes, strengthening brand presence and enabling confident rollouts at scale.
The whole experience with AlphaGraphics was outstanding; exceptional from start to finish.

When you’re running a nationwide network, brand consistency isn’t a “nice to have”; it’s essential. For City Electrical Factors, the challenge was making sure every branch looked, felt and communicated like part of one powerful brand.
On top of day-to-day print demands, City Electrical Factors also needed expert support for their flagship event, CEF Live. This meant high-impact event graphics, tight deadlines, multiple deliveries, and zero room for error. Managing hundreds of branches, suppliers and timelines required more than just great print; it required a partner who could keep up, think ahead, and make the complex feel effortless.
CEF needed a team they could trust to deliver consistently, work collaboratively, and bring their brand to life; every time, everywhere.
That’s where AlphaGraphics UK came in. Our dedicated account team got stuck in fast, working closely with CEF both on-site and behind the scenes to understand their brand, priorities and pressures.
