Colmar Brunton and Kantar TNS Co-Relocate in Auckland

In New Zealand, sister agencies Colmar Brunton and Kantar TNS have moved into newly built premises on Sale Street in the Auckland central business district (CBD). The agencies will remain separate, but will come together to collaborate when required.

Colmar Brunton and Kantar TNS New Zealand are part of WPP AUNZ, which was formed following WPP's acquisition of a controlling stake in STW Communications. The firm's new office is located at: Level 1, 46 Sale Street, Auckland 1010, surrounded by the main business hubs, cafes, bars and retail businesses, and close to Victoria Park, Viaduct Harbour and Les Mills Gym.

Jason Shoebridge, CEO of Kantar Insights New Zealand, the parent company of both agencies, says the building is custom designed to provide a 'state of the art' work environment for employees and a welcoming environment for clients. 'The relocation to the Auckland CBD is a deliberate move to be closer to many clients and partners, and we are now able to host bespoke client and business events. The new building gives us some great collaborative spaces that have already had a big impact on our projects,' he adds.
