AUCKLAND, Today: The NZ arm of Spanish car brand Seat has appointed DDB as its creative agency. The appointment will see DDB leading all marketing communications as the brand looks to grow its presence in the NZ market.
DDB Worldwide has an established relationship with Seat in a number of markets, including setting up a dedicated agency, C14, based out of Barcelona which leads the brand’s marketing communications for the whole of Europe.
The New Zealand team will draw on learnings and expertise from across the international network and is working closely with C14 to take advantage of insights that come out of Europe and, where possible, apply locally.
