What they say

It is a great honour to have received the Retailer Advertising Campaign of the Year Award. The retail category is a growing, complicated and very crowded arena. A simple idea with strong strategic thinking and an innovative creative approach can break through the messaging clutter. Prestigious awards such as this helps us at Arc Worldwide, and our industry as a whole, to continually strive for smarter, stronger creative work that influence human behaviour.

Rich Hashimoto, VP Creative Director, Arc Worldwide
