LPG wins new Barratt contract

Leepeckgroup is celebrating after winning a major piece of business with Barratt Developments plc.
 
Following a four way pitch, LPG is now one of only seven regional agencies acting for the major UK homes builder, which includes in its stable Barratt Homes, David Wilson Homes and Ward Homes.
 
The LPG team will be responsible for delivering advertisements and events across five divisions in the south of England including Southampton, Bristol and Exeter. LPG already holds the region’s PR account.
 
Barratt’s regional managing director, Steve Wilks, said: “This is an important appointment for us. It’s no secret the industry faces challenging times – all the more reason to have an agency on board which thoroughly understands our business and is able to give us valuable support. The pitch was highly competitive but LPG won with their high level of expertise and enthusiasm.”
 
Lee Peck, chairman of LPG, said: “This is a big win for us and all the more satisfying that we were tested against the best. The work for Barratt is very varied and touches every part of the agency from digital through to design and PR.”
