Who are we?
Grapefruit Graphics was established by Andy Yeomans & Jim Turner. Between Andy and Jim, they have over 45 years’ experience in the graphics industry and an extensive knowledge of event branding having delivered (and competed!) in some of the world’s biggest sporting events.


From humble beginnings in the marine sector, our business has grown into a full scale events branding company involved in the past three Olympic events. Now offering a turn-key service from initial consultation and inhouse design, right the way through to realisation of the final product. As the company has grown, so has our reputation, meeting the requirements of clients all over the world, big or small, we are now proudly recognised for our professional service and the care we put into each and every project.
Five years ago, our sister division ‘Grapefruit Creative’ was born. Grapefruit Creative offers services including full brand design and creation for both print and digital.
The team at Grapefruit are highly skilled and motivated and capable of producing and delivering large exciting projects to meet the customer needs, managing multiple suppliers and sub contracted labour when the scope falls outside the inhouse capabilities of our core team.
We understand that the delivery of any project is a product of successful planning. With this in mind, we aim to reassure our clients that all aspects of the planning phase are detailed with every assumption vindicated and explored.
Our approach to this particular project is heavily reliant on successful and robust Project Management, which leads to efficient delivery, on-time and on-budget.
