Bianca Mazur, executive director said of the appointment: “We were looking for an agency that would work as an extension of our dedicated team, and the more time we spent together it was clear that beyond deep performance media capability, dentsu believes in the same things we do, which we feel sets a solid foundation for the future.
“There is a strong cultural fit, and we look forward to partnering with dentsu to achieve our ambitious growth plans for the business.”
Jim Groves, managing director dentsu WA, said: “Thermomix is a major global lifestyle and kitchen brand and appliance. The brand has been synonymous for over two decades, in empowering Australian and New Zealand households to enjoy quality, cost-effective and healthy meals, while saving time in the kitchen.
