NEW ZEALAND—According to the WARC Creative 100, formerly known as The Gunns Report, Colenso BBDO is the 8th most creative agency in the world in 2019.
From the 10th place back in 2018, the Kiwi creative agency comes up two spots, making it still the only company from New Zealand to be featured in the Top 25.
BBDO’s client, Mars was awarded #1 Advertiser in the World, whilst Pedigree jumped up from #13 to #3 Brand in the World.
In the same week, WARC published their Effective 100 ranking, where Colenso was listed at #3 in the world, topping off a stellar week.
Colenso are the only NZ company in the top 45, with Mars reaching #2 Top Advertiser, Pedigree #6 Top Brand and Colenso’s The Child Replacement Programme as #5 Most Effective Campaign in the World.
Scott Coldham, Managing Director at Colenso BBDO, says, “This is a great reflection of our hard work and the results we’ve generated with our clients over the past year. We’re absolutely stoked, but we’re also focused on the future, not what’s behind us. We’re working hard now for the next 12 months and hopefully those efforts will see these numbers smaller, next year!”
