United States Awning Company, a Sarasota-based specialty contractor that specializes in the design, fabrication, and installation of awnings and other shade products has launched a new company website in conjunction with their new corporate identity.
“Our brand overhaul has been in the works for a while now, and we’re thrilled to see it come to fruition,” shares Mark Schwalm, President of United States Awning. “Like most businesses, our focus has evolved over the years. We have repositioned the company as a manufacturer supporting a network of dealers in Southwest Florida while we continue to serve the needs of our customers locally. With that in mind we decided it was time to modernize our brand.”
The new website features the company unique history, provides information about the various shade products they produce along with a portfolio of their work. There is also a contact form for potential dealers to sell Sundance Louvered Roofs manufactured by United States Awning.
“This business has been in my family for generations,” adds Schwalm, “but it was founded in 1870. The company used to be United States Tent and Awning, and was known for making circus tents. That’s how we ended up in Sarasota, our connection to the circus industry.”
