Ketchum, a division of Omnicom (NYSE: OMC), partnered up with the large Japanese agency Hakuhodo according to a press release today. The pairing is designed to give Ketchum PR services in the tight Japanese market, while giving Hakuhodo a bigger footprint in other countries.
Senior Partner Jon Higgins is spearheading the effort to introduce Hakuhodo to Ketchum’s clients as well as to Ketchum’s Greater China operations headed by Kenneth Chu, and to the firms Australia and Singapore affiliate ICON International Communications.
We hear that both firms are pretty happy to pair up and that despite 17 offices outside of Japan, Hakuhodo is getting a much wider reach in to other countries.
