Roger Hart, CEO, Aesop Agency
Story UK is a perfect fit for Aesop. We share the same philosophy and they bring complementary skills - digital, social and content - that will augment and strengthen our offering and make us even better storytellers, bridging brand and communications. It was also a fantastic opportunity to bring on board exceptional talent with a shared vision and ambition. This is an exciting time for both of us and our clients.
