The film, advertising and events industries order sets, props and display stands at short notice, while the city's restaurants, hotels and wine bars buy branded menus, engraved boards and signage. Corporate offices order gifts and awards, and couples book wedding decor across the Peninsula. Salt air on both coasts makes 316 stainless and UV-stable acrylic sensible outdoors.
