2015, Scangroup Rebrands to WPP
Scangroup rebrands to WPP Scangroup NAIROBI JUNE 17, 2015 – Listed marketing services group, Scangroup Limited, has changed its name to WPP Scangroup Limited. Announcing the change of name, the chief executive of WPP Scangroup, Bharat Thakrar, said that the change of name signifies that WPP Scangroup and WPP plc are now fully together, with a shared vision, values and core principles for developing marketing communications across Sub Saharan Africa and a conviction about how this can be achieved. “The synergy from the coming together of these two great firms will significantly transform the future of marketing communications across this fascinating continent. This is aptly captured by the famous African proverb that says: ‘If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go together,’” Mr. Thakrar added. WPP Scangroup, which is a subsidiary of WPP, is the largest marketing and communication group operating a multi-agency model across multiple disciplines in sub Saharan Africa. It is the only marketing services that is listed on the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE); and has a geographical footprint across sub-Saharan Africa. Scangroup’s history dates back to 1982, when it started as a small independent advertising agency that was then known as SCANAD. Over the years, it has grown its service capabilities to include Media Planning and Buying, Public Relations, Market Research, Experiential and Digital. This is besides developing affiliations with international agency groups such as J Walter Thompson, Ogilvy and Grey. Scangroup was created in 2005 as a structured corporate entity to house all these diverse companies. It was listed on the NSE in 2006. -
