BWIN WIN FOR UM Online gaming company Bwin has appointed UM as its UK media agency for a new marketing push to support its expansion in the UK, following a competitive pitch. The company offers sports, casino and poker betting across a number of European markets, and is the shirt sponsor for football giants Real Madrid and AC Milan. We were delighted by the endorsement from Nic Wenn, Bwin’s head of Northern Europe, who said “UM London showed a genuine passion for the challenge and an in-depth understanding of our consumer target”. The win supports a run of new business success for UM, including our recent appointment by online investment house Charles Schwab to manage its UK media activities, and a project for major publishing house Elsevier. UM LONDON SCOOPS £10m MEDIA ACCOUNT FOR DAIRY CREST UM London has won the £10m UK media planning and buying account for food group Dairy Crest following a six agency pitch process. According to figures from Nielsen, Dairy Crest spent £9.4m on media in the 12 months to July 2009. The review, led by marketing director Paul Fraser, covered the planning and buying for Dairy Crest's entire portfolio of brands. Dairy Crest is the UK's leading chilled foods company with a portfolio of household brands such as Country Life, Clover, Utterly Butterly, Cathedral City, Frijj milkshakes and milk&more. UM London has been appointed with immediate effect. Andy Jones, UM London’s CEO said, “We are delighted to be working with such an illustrious food company as Dairy Crest and very much look forward to helping them drive further media effectiveness & efficiencies from their media planning & buying. This hard win clearly illustrates the strength of our integrated agency product and how we look to drive business growth for clients.” Established in 1981 as the processing arm of the Milk Marketing Board, the company launched Clover, its first mass-market dairy spread, in 1983.
