Allegra Network LLC, the marketing, print and graphic communications franchisor of Allegra, American Speedy Printing, Insty-Prints and Signs Now brands announced that Steve White, Chief Operating Officer and President of Signs Now has decided to resign his position and leave the company to pursue new interests. 

White had been with the company for 18 years. He served as Director of Sales and Marketing, Executive Vice President of the Allegra brand and, in 2006 moved to Sarasota, Fla., shortly after Allegra Network purchased Signs Now. He returned to company headquarters in Plymouth, Mich., in 2010 to assume his most recent role. He was also an investor in the company.

Prior to his involvement with Allegra Network, White was an executive at Domino’s Pizza and a former officer in the United States Army. 

White cited his desire to take on new challenges in the franchise industry as his reason for leaving.

Mike Marcantonio, President, CEO and Majority Investor of Allegra Network since 2011 commented, “Clearly our loss will be someone else’s gain. Steve is a knowledgeable and capable executive with 25 years’ experience in the franchise industry. He will be missed by our staff and our franchisees.  We wish him the best in whatever new challenges he chooses to tackle in the next chapter in his career.”

Marcantonio added that Allegra Network’s senior management team will announce organizational changes to assume White’s responsibilities within a few weeks.
