New Zealand public relations agency, Mango Communications Aotearoa, has joined the FleishmanHillard network and will now operate as FleishmanHillard Aotearoa, effective immediately. This move forms part of Omnicom Oceania's evolving communications offering.
The agency will remain co-located with McCann Group NZ (formerly DDB Group Aotearoa & FCB Aotearoa) and will continue to deliver earned creative and strategic communications for its existing client portfolio.
Managing Director of FleishmanHillard Aotearoa, Sean Brown, said: "This is a significant step for our team and our clients. This move connects us to a powerful global network and strengthens our trans-Tasman collaboration. We now have access to more than 250 specialists in PR, social, creators and activations across ANZ, as well as advanced global tools, insights and expertise from the FleishmanHillard network.
"We already offer full-service earned creative, corporate communications, influencer and social capabilities, as well as experiential and event production. Through FleishmanHillard, we now have even greater access to global expertise, specialist services and integrated communications capabilities."
CEO of Earned at Omnicom Oceania, Roberto Pace, said the rebrand positions FleishmanHillard to further strengthen its leadership in the New Zealand market.
"There are significant opportunities ahead for FleishmanHillard in New Zealand. Sean and the team have built a reputation for delivering best-in-class earned creative, strategy and execution for leading brands, and being part of the global FleishmanHillard network will only strengthen that offering."
