Humanaut joins 2020 Ad Age A-List
Advertising and marketing industry trade magazine Ad Age named Humanaut as one of its A-List agencies for 2020.
The recognition was the first for the seven-year-old shop by Ad Age, but Humanaut has previously won several awards for its popular consumer campaigns for brands such as hello, Bombas, West Elm, Organic Voices, Perception Kayaks, and Nutribullet. Its buzzworthy digital and experiential marketing efforts for Organic Valley helped the co-op of dairy farmers become the country’s first billion-dollar organic food company. And as the agency has grown, it has moved up the Ad Age awards ladder, achieving Gold Small Agency of the Year in 2016 and Small Agency of the Year Southeastern Region in 2017 before the ultimate A-List honor.
Last year, Humanaut won new work from Splenda Stevia, Organic Voices, Super Size Me 2: Holy Chicken, NutriBullet and others.
Humanaut works exclusively with organic, natural and better-for-you brands that are working to make things better for people, animals and the planet.
Humanaut currently has 26 full-time staffers with plans to expand the staff to 30 or more this year.
“We’re excited to bring this national attention to our home town Chattanooga,” said David Littlejohn, Humanaut co-founder and Creative Director. “Our goal is to make Chattanooga one of the best places for creative people to work in the world.”
