The bread-maker has brought in experiential agency Hot Pickle to plan the activity for the coming year, which will consist of a fully integrated multi-agency campaign with experiential at its core.
“Hot Pickle demonstrated a genuine affinity with the brand and stood out with a combination of smart strategic thinking and a killer creative idea,” said Sophie Lyons, marketing manager, Hovis.
“They also have an impressive FMCG portfolio and we’re looking forward to a great experience in 2017.”
Hot Pickle won the account following a competitive pitch in October.
Commenting on the win Andrew St Clair Johnson, partner, Hot Pickle added: “We are extremely excited and proud to be working with Hovis. It’s a great opportunity to demonstrate the potential of events and experiential to sit at the heart of a campaign and to drive content across channels.”
