BRND WGN becomes the first ISO-certified creative agency
Malta-based creative agency BRND WGN is not only an official Google partner but is now also ISO-certified.
Best known for producing a series of viral videos for Air Malta, BRND WGN works with many of Malta’s top brands including Cisk, Malta International Airport, Alberta, Agenda, Eurosport, The Point, Liquigas, Midi and Calamatta Cuschieri.
BRND WGN started as a one-man operation providing strategic consultancy but has now grown into a fully-integrated creative agency employing 29 people – more than a third of whom were employed within the last 12 months.
“Creative agencies like us often come across as a bit kooky but our latest achievements show that there is method to the BRND WGN madness,” said CEO Peter Grech.
“ISO-9001 certification was an important milestone for us because it confirms that our processes are efficient, successful and internationally recognised.”
