Creative communications agency Bray Leino, part of The Mission Marketing Group (the misssiontm) has announced the acquisition of Bristol-based e-commerce and digital marketing consultancy Yucca.
With a focus on the design and build of e-commerce websites and the development of motivational online campaigns, the move is set to strengthen Bray Leino's already impressive track record of digital success in working with clients such as Wrigley, Volkswagen, BP, Vogel’s, Freederm and Legal & General.
The acquisition of Yucca strengthens Bray Leino’s offering to its clients’ digital needs with experience in strategy, information architecture, design, development, digital marketing, mobile, search marketing (SEO & PPC), affiliate and social media. Both teams are Google certified in both Adwords and Analytics.
Bruce Hutton, Bray Leino chief executive, commented: "After several months of discussions we decided that we can collectively deliver more for clients and staff if we join forces. It’s clear the acquisition will strengthen both of us, with Yucca bringing over £1million of business and an impressive and experienced team, along with some great clients including Clarks, Silverstone Circuits, Hoburne Holiday Parks, howies and Motability.”
Yucca will become Bray Leino Yucca and will move into Bray Leino's Bristol office with immediate effect.
Executive chairman of the missiontm, David Morgan, said: “Yucca is a valuable addition to Bray Leino’s digital portfolio and will go some way to further expanding the services we, the missiontm, can provide our clients. Following on from our successful interim results, the Yucca acquisition announcement will bring new opportunities and experience and we look forward to integrating the agency within The Mission Marketing Group and sharing our future success.”
