DUBLIN, Ohio, Aug. 10 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Wendys International, Inc., part of Wendys/Arbys Group, Inc. (NYSE: WEN), today named Miami-based Bravo Group as its U.S. Hispanic agency of record. Recognized as one of the leading U.S. Hispanic integrated communications agencies by Advertising Age, Bravo Group will be tasked with creative, planning and strategy to engage and attract the more than 45 million Hispanic consumers in the U.S. to the Wendys brand.

The agency was selected from several leading multicultural marketing agencies that participated in a rigorous review process involving Wendys senior executives, Wendys franchise community and Kaplan Thaler Group. The selection of Bravo Group marks a key milestone in the continued execution of Wendys disciplined brand-building strategy; the effort is successfully affirming Wendys reputation as the leader in the hamburger quick-service restaurant category, with enhanced customer service, breakthrough new products, improved core menu choices and leading-edge marketing.

 

"From our products to our people, Wendys strives to be authentic, genuine and honest – all values we know Bravo shares, and that resonate with Hispanic audiences," added Holtcamp.

 

Bravo Group will transition into its new role over the next 60 days. Hispanic media planning and buying will remain with MediaVest and MV42.
