We’ve entered The World Report at 232, after revenues reached $3.6 million US dollars in the last calendar year. The influential list is produced by the Holmes Report and the International Communications Consultancy Organisation.
The UK’s PR industry dominated the growth list. PLMR was named as the 6th fastest-growing UK agency. The global PR industry grew by 11% in 2013, compared to 8% in 2012.
PLMR’s MD, Kevin Craig and Deputy MD, Elin Twigge said;
“This recognition of PLMR in a global arena is superb news, reflecting the hard work of our team, and their expertise in public affairs, PR, crisis, planning, media training and digital.
It’s interesting that much of the growth in the industry was driven by organisations of PLMR’s size, casting doubt on the idea that clients believe bigger is better. We pride ourselves on exceeding expectations, and we’d like to thank our clients for the incredible support and fantastic opportunities they’ve brought us this year. They’ve found we’re able to offer a bespoke service, with the flexibility to scale up to support the biggest campaigns.
This year we’ve grown our team of consultants from across the political spectrum, providing expertise and leadership in a variety of sectors, including health and social care, transport, education, leisure, food and retail, charities and energy. We’re also a company with values, donating 5% of profits to charity. Our charity football tournament at a Premier League club raised money to help amputee children in the developing world.
We’ve more exciting announcements coming soon about our international presence, and look forward to another 12 months of achieving great results for our clients. Thanks to everyone who’s been a part of our success!”
