“PR Agency One’s proven track record in B2B communications and their innovative approach aligns perfectly with our goals. We are confident that this collaboration will help us effectively communicate Essity’s value proposition, highlighting our commitment to breaking barriers to well-being and contributing to a healthy, sustainable, and circular society.”
PR Agency One will focus on securing editorial opportunities in trade and business publications, focusing on communicating Essity’s corporate strategy, commercial successes, and thought leadership.
“As an organisation which exists to help maintain personal wellbeing, Essity is an important and high-profile international brand which has customer dignity at its heart,” added Stephen Sanders, Associate Director at PR Agency One.
“Our campaign is led by the brand’s values and we are hugely appreciative of the opportunity to tell Essity’s corporate story. Whether that be the commitment to sustainability, tacking period poverty or ensuring products meet changing needs of elderly care, our goal is to ensure that Essity’s story resonates with its audiences and highlights the positive impact on both people and planet.”
