With true grit and the unwavering spirit of entrepreneurship, The Shout Group has secured 15 new business wins this year, a remarkable two-fold surge over the previous year.
Headlining the group’s roster of new clients is leading beverage manufacturer Etika, with FCB SHOUT assuming creative responsibilities for three key brands: Pepsi, Wonda and Tropicana on several key assignments.
Commenting on FCB SHOUT’s appointment, Etika’s Vice President of Marketing, Amy Gan said: “We firmly believe in FCB SHOUT’s unmatched creativity and strategic brilliance. What sets them apart from others is their unwavering commitment to finding solutions even amidst the most challenging circumstances.
They excel in collaborating, making every project a true partnership. The respect they show for our opinions and their determination to go the extra mile speaks volumes about their dedication.”
FCB SHOUT’s partnership with ETIKA has already yielded significant success with the agency’s Chinese New Year campaign “Save the Drama with Pepsi” winning three golds at the recently concluded APPIES Asia-Pacific and APPIES Malaysia Awards.
Along with ETIKA, the agency has also secured multiple projects from PepsiCo Malaysia for Pepsi during this year’s Hari Raya celebration and design duties on Tropicana.
Other new clients joining FCB SHOUT’s roster this year feature several high-profile Malaysian brands such as Mr. DIY – the homegrown retail chain and renowned property developer EcoWorld who have assigned the agency several major developments and festive campaigns to handle.
The Shout Group has also bolstered its financial services portfolio with Sun Life Malaysia awarding a key project to FCB SHOUT and AIG Malaysia selecting the group’s boutique creative consultancy, IGNITE for creative work.
In addition, the FCB SHOUT has seen former clients Mi Sedaap and GLAD returning to the fold, further underscoring the agency’s reputation as an FMCG marketing powerhouse.
