WHY CARTEL?.

We’re different. Our people, our passion & our relevance: Sophisticated creativity that is result driven.

Weathered from a strong client list, we’ve sharpened our unique skill set to offer only the most innovative work for our clients and partners. We create with a concept in mind, not around a new typeface or our current favourite colour. In our search for the perfect words to express our own values, we came across a quote from one of the industry’s legends Dick Lord. It seems to capture everything we’d like to say about our beliefs:

“Be honest. Do good work. And remember, you’re defined by your clients. Be as discriminating about clients as clients are about agencies. Work with people you respect, on products you believe in. Great work, great clients and honest relationships; that’s the secret…” Dick Lord.

Cartel Agency is based on that secret, and in being succinct with values as expressed by Dick Lord we’ve taken great pride in our work & accomplishments, enjoying the creative process & the people we work with. We only work on great projects, with and for great people.

NETWORK

The Cartel network spans the globe, with reach to almost all major trade hubs. Our group of partner agencies is unique in its span, with an ever commitment to working only with the worlds best. Don’t let our reach fool you though, we may be global in size, but we’re still boutique at heart.

A WORD FROM ONE OF US

“Cartel is made up of great thinkers, planners & partners. We only hire & partner with those whom are better than ourselves. We organise, collaborate & execute in our own little world, a world committed to producing communications that truely cut through. Nothing drives us more than results – frankly, we’re not fans of pretty pictures; though we are fans of pretty pictures that deliver a pre-determined result, swiftly & efficently.”
