"I am a business owner with a retail store and I got my awning from Acme. They are very professional and they did the installation and setup in no time! Business interruptions can be costly, especially with a restaurant like mine, so this is good company to work with."
About our company
Commitment to Service
Our business is built upon providing quality products and services to our customers. On every project we work on, no matter how large or how small, we strive to exceed our customers' expectations every time. When the work is complete and our customers tell us that they would recommend our products and services to anyone, we take it to heart. Our continuing mission is to uphold the tradition of excellence which has been our signature since 1922.
Company History
Acme Awning Company (now known as Acme Sunshades Enterprises Inc.) was founded in 1922 by Carl Rawitzer—son of the first president of what is now the Industrial Fabrics Association International (IFAI)—to manufacture and install custom fabric awnings and canopies in the San Francisco Bay Area.
We are members of the IFAI, the Professional Awning Manufacturers Association (PAMA) and the Western Canvas Products Association (WCPA).
Over the years we have received many awards from the WCPA for projects we have designed, manufactured and installed. During the mid-1990's we requested an independent company (Valuestar, Inc.) evaluate our Company. They conducted a customer survey and found that we have maintained a high level of customer satisfaction, that our customers will call on us in the future for their awning needs and will refer us to others. We will continue to evolve as a diversely skilled, fast-moving team of professionals ready to learn from each other and meet whatever challenges our clients may face.
