Havas Media defends Hyundai and KIA budget

Media agency Havas Media (Havas Media Group) has won the pitch for media services for the Hyundai and KIA brands, thereby defending the media budget of Hyundai and KIA.

Havas Media won the pitch, which began in December 2018, covering media services for the Hyundai and KIA brands in Europe. Until now, the agency had worked for these clients continuously since 2009. As a result of the won pitch, Havas Media will handle planning, optimisation and buying of online and offline campaigns for both car manufacturers. The cooperation will also cover additional, non-standard activities.

– We are very pleased with the win, as it confirms the effectiveness of our efforts and the soundness of our business strategy. We have been working for both brands for over 10 years, which means we know the product category and target group inside out, ultimately allowing us to offer an optimised, tailor-made marketing communication strategy based on the Meaningful Brands philosophy – says Renata Wasiak-Sosnowska, COO of Havas Media Group.
