Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) January 16, 2014
Luminara Worldwide, who develops, manufactures, and sells "real flame effect" candles, has named Minneapolis-based Griffin Archer as its global advertising agency of record. Griffin Archer will handle holistic communications for the brand.
The flameless candle category is growing due to emerging awareness of the benefits of an alternative to the traditional candle, including safety, environmental responsibility and value. Continually advancing the technology and bringing new products to market through retailers and distributors in the U.S., Europe, and Asia, Luminara candles are the most preferred in the premium segment of the flameless category.
Griffin Archer will build upon this success through its expertise in strategic brand planning and developing breakthrough creative work. A full-service agency, Griffin Archer will lead global branding initiatives across strategy, media, advertising, packaging and PR.
“We look forward to partnering with Griffin Archer in order to build Luminara into a global brand that delivers a consistent message and consumer experience to a special and unique product,” says Jerry Cain, President, Luminara Worldwide. “Griffin Archer’s veteran advertising team brings strategic and creative leadership the Luminara brand requires in order to emotionally connect with consumers in a growing category and cluttered media environment.”
“The Griffin Archer team has years of experience developing differentiating campaigns that nurture the bond between consumers and brands,” says Ellie Anderson, CEO and Chief Creative Officer of Griffin Archer. “We are looking forward to collaborating closely with our new client partners to create a consumer-insight-driven, compelling and consistent vision for the brand.”
