Bangkok--16 Oct--Landor Associates
Landor Associates, a global creative community of brand strategists and designers, today announced the opening of an office in Bangkok. The office is Landor’s first in Thailand, twelfth in the Asia-Pacific region, and 24th globally. It will function as the central point of operations for work in Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos. The office will be headed by Joyce Pau, senior client manager.
Henry Chan, president of Landor’s Greater China region, said, “Historically, Thailand has been an important market for us, and provided some of our strongest portfolio pieces, including the original version of the iconic Thai Airways identity. As we broaden our strength in Asia as a whole, and as we become more convinced of the future economic growth of the Thai region in particular, it only made sense to expand there. We look forward to better serving our local and international clients, in part by connecting them to our global network in new and exciting ways.”
The Bangkok office will draw upon the consulting and design resources from other Landor offices in the larger Asia-Pacific region. With prior experience in the marketing working with Caltex, PTT, and S&P Group, a key goal of the office is to provide world-class service to clients headquartered in the business and financial capital of Thailand and the regional crossroads for Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos. Helping brands differentiate and excel in this already competitive marketplace is of particular importance as the opening of the ASEAN Economic Community looms large in 2015.
Landor’s new Bangkok office is located on the 17th floor of the 989 Siam Tower Rama 1 Road, Patumwan.
