PR company beats recession

During 2009, the Cape Town-based full-service agency of Fleishman-Hillard has bucked the industry trend by achieving a claimed revenue growth of more than 300% in the first 10 months of the year and growing its headcount significantly. According to Michelle de Pons-James, MD of the company, this is attributable to “our global footprint which allows us to call on best global talent where required and the mission of the company, to deliver communications at the point of impact.”
