Marketing agency wins raft of North East clients

Newcastle-based O.agency has been selected to bring its expertise to a number of North East brands.

Port of Tyne has appointed O to manage its PR and comms as it continues to drive its plans to decarbonise, digitise and innovate across the business.

North East train operator Lumo has also appointed O as its PR agency to build its reputation in the region and beyond.

Earlier this year, NE1 selected O as its new creative partner, with the first campaigns since the partnership formed now live for Summer in the City, Screen on the Green and Newcastle Restaurant Week.

O was also named as Pride in the City’s PR partner for 2024, which took place across the weekend of 19-21 July in Newcastle city centre.

Kirsty Ostell, O.agency managing director said: “O has been in the region for almost 20 years, working alongside some of our most exciting businesses and most important parts of our local community, from retailers like Fenwick and Charles Clinkard to transport providers and regional universities and colleges to name just a few.

“We take great pride in playing a part in the impact our clients have on the growth, innovation and vibrancy of our part of the world and are delighted to see this impact grow as we sit at the beginning of a new era for the region thanks to a new mayor.

“Our passion for the North East is loud and proud, so we are thrilled to be working with even more businesses doing great things in our region.

“From the sustainable economic growth of one of the region’s major ports and most sustainable train operator, to the wonderful things happening in our community not least this year’s Pride in the City.”
