History lesson! Did you know First Display started as a taxi advertising business? That’s right! In 2004, First Display was a small, local business, fitting Edinburgh and Glasgow taxis with decals, tip sheets, and full vehicle wraps. Fast forward 20 years and First Display offers 200+ signage products, an expert in-house team, a local Edinburgh workshop, and serves customers across the UK.
However, to this day, vehicle livery remains a core First Display service.
Advertising is a crucial part of any business’ success. Especially for small businesses with smaller advertising budgets than large corporations, vehicle advertising is an essential way to advertise your business to thousands of people, everyday, while on regular company errands. Your vehicle becomes your mobile billboard!

Here are a handful of businesses and industries that greatly benefit from vehicle advertising. Check it out!
Delivery Services Across Every Industry
It’s not just food that gets delivered. Florists, furniture stores, grocers, and pharmacies all offer delivery services. Vehicle wraps help customers recognise your delivery vehicles, making them feel safe when you arrive. Using the same design across your fleet builds brand buzz and sets expectations.
Use wraps to share your business story with images of your products and delivery areas.
Transportation and Logistics Companies
These companies are always on the road, making it a great opportunity to advertise. Customise each vehicle with your logo, contact info, and services to attract potential customers as you move goods.
Home and Commercial Services Companies
Service vehicles are always on the move, from plumbers fixing leaks to landscapers working in parks. Vehicle wraps help these businesses get noticed in the community. It’s free advertising while you work. For example, if you’re painting a house, your branded vehicle parked outside will be seen by all the neighbours. They’ll know who to call if they like your work.
Use vehicle wraps to show your business details like hours, phone numbers, and services. A logo on your car, van, or truck builds instant recognition and trust. For plumbers, include a 24/7 phone number for emergencies. Adding a QR code lets people quickly visit your website.
Food Industry Businesses
Make people hungry with vinyl wraps for your food business. Delivery services benefit a lot since they advertise wherever they go. Customers will know their order has arrived when they see your branded vehicle. A well-designed wrap with pictures of tasty food and your contact info can set you apart from competitors.
Caterers and bakeries can also use vehicle wraps. If you deliver a fancy cake to a wedding, a sleek wrap will make a great impression. People at the event will see your brand and remember you for future orders.
Food trucks can attract customers with bright, colourful wraps and fun fonts. Your wrap should clearly show what type of food you sell, and you can even include your menu. If you need to change the design later, vehicle wraps can be easily updated.
Colleges and Universities
Businesses don’t need to deliver services or products to benefit from vehicle wraps. Colleges and universities can use them too. Park at careers fairs or around campus to help prospective students learn about the institution. It also encourages current students to get involved in activities.
Vehicle advertising has been at the heart of First Display since our beginnings as a taxi advertising business in 2004. Today, we continue to offer top-notch vehicle wraps that turn your company cars, vans, or trucks into mobile billboards, reaching thousands of potential customers every day.
No matter your industry, vehicle wraps can help you stand out and grow your brand. From delivery services to food trucks, and home service companies to universities, vehicle advertising is a smart, cost-effective way to get noticed.
