Fourteen years ago, Harriet Thiong’o, our Managing Director, setup a Marketing Agency in Kenya, right in her home garage in Karen. If you’ve met her, then you know that she’s a natural at it; undeniably good at what she does with a contagious passion for strategic marketing and a warm personality to match. What she didn’t know, by her own admission, was that the industry was littered with ‘briefca
ses’ and that there was huge demand for professional, strategic marketing services. She noticed that her clients were almost surprised by the attention to detail, quality production and of course, the tenacity. The company quickly gained a reputation for quality, creative work with a distinctive culture of personalized services and exceptional delivery, while she gained herself a reputation of being ‘a dog with a bone’. Within the first two years, the agency had grown to a team of 30, was commissioned to produce about 10 regional magazines, landing contracts with organizations like the UN and had managed several local and international events that led to the launch of Harriet Group of Companies Ltd. Today, the Group specializes in Strategic Marketing, Business Value Strategy & Investment, Business Networking and publishing, with about 20 solid brands and offices in Kenya, Uganda, Dubai and Dublin, Ireland. Ours is not so much a story of exponential growth as it is a story of striving for excellence. We could say all the right things and back them up but the real reason is that focusing on RELATIONSHIPS is what got us this far and what keeps us going. We genuinely want to know you. Your Vision. Your Business. Your story. How could we deliver otherwise?
