BRF CHOOSES ADVERTISING AGENCES

 

Choice includes F/Nazca, DM9, Talent, NBS and DPZ; Decision is in line with the company´s strategy of consolidating its businesses in Brazil and the world  

 

BRF chose a new group of advertising agencies yesterday (November 8) consisting of five partners: F/Nazca, DM9, Talent, NBS and DPZ. The decision is in line with the company´s strategy of consolidating its businesses in Brazil and the world. Among the brands that will be served are Sadia, Perdigão, Batavo, Elegê, Qualy, Claybom, Hot Pocket and Prezato, as well as the company´s corporate brand.

 

The competitive process, which got underway in August 2012, was conducted in a completely transparent and detailed way by a committee of BRF executives with the support of the SPGA – Sales Periscinoto Guerreiro Fontoura & Associados consultancy.

 

The Sadia account will be handled by F/Nazca which will form an association with the current agencies,  DM9 and DPZ. “We are very satisfied with this choice as the Sadia brand is one of the most admired in Brazil and will be served by excellent agencies,” said José Eduardo Cabral, vice-president of BRF´s Domestic Market. “We are sure that F/Nazca is attuned to the new period Sadia is undergoing and will make a great contribution to the team.”

 

The Perdigão account, currently attended by Y&R, will become the responsibility of Talent. “Y&R´s work was very important in terms of Perdigão´s positioning in recent years,” said Cabral. “We are deeply grateful for the work carried out to date and are certain that Talent will help us consolidate the Perdigão brand even further.”

 

NBS will maintain the dairy portfolio – Batavo and Elegê – and will also take charge of BRF´s institutional account. “This new alignment will allow BRF to strengthen its commercial communication bases even further and also guarantee its greatest asset: the closeness and loyalty of the Brazilian consumer,” Cabral added.
