Weldon Lab in Culver City California makes these and they can make them up to 40 inches wide. These are not cheap, this is a professional lab.

The owner of the lab is John Weldon and he is a wonderful person. They do the best quality work. The phone is 310-837-7811 and ask for Kathrin.

If they are for a trade show you need to know the color temperature of the lightbox so you can tell the lab how to balance the image. Many trade shows use Duratrans. a material processed in the same chemistry as color photo paper, but run at a slower processor speed- it has a white opaque backing and is made for backlit display work. There may also be transparent or opaque materials available in the inkjet printing market for display work. You still need to know the color temp of the illuminating backlight to properly print any of these materials.

How large a transparency are you looking for?
Some years ago, I was teaching a night-school class, and wanted to use and overhead projector.
There are transparencies available, letter size (8.5 x 11 inches, or just a tad smaller than A4), that you can print on your home printer. I had a colour ink-jet printer at the time, and it worked great.
