Brownes_NaturalSilence_BLOG.jpgMeerkats’ ‘A Natural Silence’ campaign for Brownes Dairy won Silver at the annual Asia-Pacific Effie Awards held in Singapore on Friday.

It’s the latest in a string of awards for the campaign, which launched in October 2015.

Meerkats CEO Gavin Bain said: “We are so happy for Brownes Dairy, who were such a great partner to work with on ‘A Natural Silence’. Since launching in 2015/16 the key measures for Brownes across brand and sales have continued to strengthen. Awards are an added bonus, but business success is the result we drive for at Meerkats and this work has delivered in spades.”

Campaign Brief Australia’s reigning Agency of the Year, Clemenger BBDO Melbourne, was crowned Agency of the Year on the back of multi awarded work for TAC ‘Meet Graham’, Bonds ‘The Boys’, Snickers ‘Hungerithm’ and NAB ‘Mini Legends’.
