Does anyone have any contacts that have a large scale plotter in order to print a banner onto fabric?

My dad's Rotary Club in Bulawayo needs one printed and they are unable to find someone there to do it apparently. It needs to be about 450mm wide by 1200mm long, on white fabric (ink colours yellow and blue...).

My folks are coming to visit at the end of August and my dad is hoping that I can get it done by then. Anybody able to help, please pm me... I have a copy of it here, but I am not even sure if the size or resolution is good enough to enlarge that big.

Not sure who they have tried in Bulawayo, my dad just mentioned on the phone this last weekend that they were really struggling to find someone to do it for them... I am sure getting it done here in the UK is a last resort option for them.

Reduced a bit in attachment...

Sign-It-Signs in Harare, Signs of the times in harare, Gary Thomson and associates. I could get it done here in the Emirates and high quality but I think it would be expensive, Have a guy going back to Zim in a week. So let me know

If he hasn't done so already, then I am surprised, but he should speak to one of the Round Tablers, they have contacts for all sorts of things, even in South Africa.
