Five leading German digital agencies are joining forces under the Dept name. Following the rebranding, Dept now employs more than 400 people in Germany alone across six key cities all the while servicing well-known customers such as DB Schenker, Nivea, Otto, Philips, and Samsung.
Last April, after the Dept network had announced to continue as one single digital agency, the time has come for the German and Danish agencies to merge. The rebranding will pull together the knowledge, and industry experiences of German agencies BE EXCELLENT, superReal, Trust Agents, visumate and XAVA Media, as well as the Danish agency, QuantAds.
What makes Dept stand out, is that its organizational structure is made up of individual departments, such as Brand & Advertising, Digital Marketing, E-Commerce and Marketplaces. All of which were previously independent agencies; extremely specialized in their field and brought innovation and acceleration to their clients. After successfully working together for joint clients such as Birkenstock and Weber, the German and Danish rebranding under the Dept name now follows suit.
Cologne-based Amazon Marketing specialist, factor-a, will continue operating under its own name as part of Dept. Within only two years, factor-a has grown from a startup to eventually becoming Europe’s largest specialized Amazon vendor agency with 120 employees, and is currently focusing on further international expansion as part of the Dept brand.
Dept wants to emphasize its value to customers who wish to lead the way in the digital landscape with their mission statement: ‘we help our clients reinvent & accelerate their digital reality’.
“When it comes to their digital business, companies nowadays are looking for a key partner. By combining creativity, technology and data, we believe that Dept is the agency model of the future”, says Dimi Albers, CEO of Dept. “We are big enough to serve end-to-end businesses, yet small enough to have a personal connection with every customer, be it B2C or B2B, start-up, mid-size, or multinational.”
Since 2016 Dept has grown into an international agency with over 1000 employees, spreading over eight countries with a turnover of 125 million euros. Dept is striving to become one of the leading digital agencies worldwide in the next years.
