Fonterra in global pitch?

EditorNews Make a Comment

AUCKLAND, Today: Fonterra is understood to be holding a pitch for a global agency partner, according to a Damien Venutto report in yesterday’s NZ Herald.

Colenso BBDO is the current agency of record on the $40m account (the agency’s remuneration is based on project-by-project work).

TBWA Melbourne recently won Fonterra Australia from Clemenger BBDO Melbourne.


“Given TBWA’s success in Australia, it’s likely they’d be interested in a bigger slice of the business.”

Fonterra, which is currently headed for a projected loss of $675m, contributed just two words to Venutto’s story: “No comment!”

Venutto wrote: “Given TBWA’s success in Australia, it seems likely the agency could also be interested in snapping up a bigger slice of the global business.”

Veunutto’s story has not been posted to the Herald website – M+AD picked it up from its daily home-delivered print copy.
