Retailers are gearing up to battle for Christmas budgets, and their success this festive season will rely on a well-executed creative, digital and in-store strategy.

With that in mind, we scoured The Drum Recommends database for the mid-size agencies (40 to 100 staff) that specialize in retail and collated the top 20 scoring for creativity according to their own clients.

The Drum Recommends is a free service designed by The Drum to help marketers find relevant, trusted agencies. Recommendations are based on reviews from their clients.

Every year, The Drum Recommends receives thousands of ratings from advertisers. Marketers complete a survey that scores their agency’s performance, the quality and range of their services, as well as price. Agencies must receive at least three client ratings to become recommended for a service.

Below, you’ll find the names, headcount and office locations of the 20 top-rated mid-size agencies for Creativity & Innovation, as rated by their clients, who work in the retail sector.
