Our Story

Walken Print & Signage is an Aboriginal-owned business built on quality, reliability and strong relationships.

Founded by Jayden Gerrand and Blake Simpson, Walken brings together Aboriginal leadership, commercial thinking and deep production experience to deliver print, signage and branded solutions with care and consistency.

Walken means rainbow in Noongar - reflecting variety, visibility, creativity and the power of bringing ideas to life.

We created Walken to build a business that does great work, values people and grows with purpose.

Who We Are

  • At Walken, we keep things straightforward.

    We listen first, understand what matters and work closely with our clients to deliver the right outcome. We value clear communication, practical advice, quality execution and doing what we say we’ll do.

    Whether it’s a simple print run or a more complex signage or branded production job, we bring the same mindset to every project: care in the details, honesty in the process and pride in the end result.

  • Quality in the details

    • Quality comes from care, consistency and getting the details right.

    Relationships first

    • Good work starts with trust, clear communication and genuine partnership.

    Community-led

    • We’re building a buisness that grows with purpose and stays connected to community.

    Practical and honest

    • No jargon, no ego, just clear advice, real service and work done properly.

Community Impact

Walken is more than a printing business. We’re building a business with purpose — one that delivers quality work while staying connected to community.

As an Aboriginal-owned and operated business, community is central to how we think, work and grow.

As Walken grows, a percentage of profits will be directed toward initiatives for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people within education and sport - helping create confidence, connection, skills and opportunity for the next generation.

We know meaningful impact takes time, consistency and accountability, and this commitment is part of the long-term future we’re building.
