Mr Weragoda has created signs to help local businesses big and small attract customers amid the coronavirus pandemic.
"I thought given these circumstances, that I could give a little back by donating some signs," Mr Weragoda said.
"I've produced more than 100 signs and people have been getting in touch to display them at their businesses."
Mr Weragoda said the signs have proved popular and he's been surprising how grateful business owners have been when receiving them.
"The best thing about it is to see so many people get emotional about something so simple," he said.
"To me, it is absolutely nothing and it is the least I could do."
You can request a sign for your local business by contacting Mr Weragoda via Facebook by searching Mark Weragoda Signs or calling 0418 507 704.
