Goodman Fielder head of retail marketing Katherine Jensen said the opportunity to have a single creative and PR agency across all brands was an attractive proposition.
“We have a very big portfolio of brands and previously we’ve felt the need to work across multiple creative agencies.
Aside from being great agency partners, crucially for us both DDB and Mango demonstrated a very deep bench which gave us the confidence that they can help steer all our brands forward.”
DDB ceo Justin Mowday said: “Many of these brands have been incredibly well-crafted over decades – in Edmonds case, over a century.
“It’s a privilege to be working on such great brands.
