What is a memorial plaque and how much does it cost in Kenya?
A memorial plaque carries the name and dates of a person who has died, and sometimes a short message or photo, and is made to be fixed to a grave, wall or memorial. At Print Lion the price depends on size and quantity, so you send your size and quantity for a quote. The minimum order is one plaque. Orders are ready in 1 to 2 days once the artwork is correct and approved. Delivery is available to all counties in Kenya, or you can collect from our office on Moi Avenue, Nairobi.
Made to your own wording
Each plaque carries the name, dates and message you give us, so it says exactly what your family or organisation wants it to say.
Professional printing
Names and dates need to be sharp and correct. We check your artwork and send a proof before anything is printed.
Quick turnaround
Your plaque is ready in 1 to 2 days once the artwork is correct and approved, which helps when a service or unveiling date is close.
Order one or many
The minimum order is one plaque, so a single family can order just the one they need, and a church or school can order more.
Delivery or collection
We deliver to all counties in Kenya, or you can collect from our Nairobi office.
