Who We Are

We started Derrick in 2010 to prove one thing: purpose and profit can pull in the same direction. As South Africa’s first agency founded on the principles of the Triple Bottom Line, we’ve turned that belief into results; from repositioning Petco for the EPR era to giving Woolworths’ sustainability messaging new life through a bold in-store voice and visual expression, to surprising the world with Cape Town’s climate-smart initiatives at COP. We use creative leverage to solve tough problems in recycling, retail, food security, and infrastructure. We’re agile. We think deeply. We cut through. We conceptualise for the long-term, so brands don’t just stand out, they stand for something.

We build brands that matter.
