Spoon Acquires Southerly

Spoon acquires London-based agency Southerly

Spoon enters the British market by acquiring London content agency Southerly.   

“To establish Spoon in the UK has been on our wish list for quite some time, but it wasn’t until we met Southerly that we found the perfect match,” says Spoon’s CEO, Anders Ribba.

Southerly is a London-based boutique content agency that has been providing high-quality creative services for nearly 10 years, working with clients such as Shell, Philips and Royal Bank of Scotland. The agency also runs a successful marketing and communications blog that has won a UK Blog Award several years in a row.       

“We share a strong belief in the power of authentic and story-driven communications,” says Ribba. “We’re similar in many ways and I’m convinced that we can develop together, both in the Nordics and in the UK. We will exchange specialist knowledge and resources with each other from day one.”

Spoon currently has offices in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmo, Oslo and Helsinki as well as many other established international supplier partnerships. In recent years, the agency has developed effective systems to work seamlessly across countries and offices on global assignments and works with large international brands such as Microsoft, Volvo and Sandvik.
