J.H Whittaker & Sons has appointed Bastion Shine as the New Zealand chocolate maker’s integrated advertising and communications partner, following a competitive pitch.
Holly and Matt Whittaker, co-chief operating officers, say the family-owned company is delighted to appoint Bastion Shine as its integrated advertising and communications partner following a competitive pitch process.
“We believe in long-term partnerships, and have been impressed by the people and quality of creative and strategic thinking from the Bastion Shine team," they say.
"We believe they will be a great fit with the Whittaker’s culture and that they are the right partner to deliver on our vision of the world loving world-class chocolate from Porirua.”
Bastion Shine Wellington managing sirector Jodi Willocks says the team at Whittaker’s is passionate about creating chocolate of uncompromising quality all the way from bean to bar.
"Having the opportunity to partner with a local business that is committed to quality in everything they do was a huge motivator for us," says Willocks.
"We’re delighted to add such a well-loved brand to our Wellington client roster, and to be working with a group of people as committed to enduring partnerships as we are.”
The Whittaker’s NZ partnership is the latest in a string of client and project wins for Bastion Shine Wellington, since launching in the capital in September last year.
