About AdMakers International (PTY)LTD

Who We Are

ADMAKERS INTERNATIONAL

Luxury. Performance. Authority.

Founded in 1989 and headquartered in Cape Town and Johannesburg, AdMakers International is a through-the-line advertising and marketing agency specialising in building high-value brands across complex and competitive markets.

For almost four decades, the agency has partnered with clients aimed at higher income groups where brand positioning, strategic clarity and measurable commercial outcomes are essential. AdMakers works extensively in automotive, financial services, aviation, marine, luxury real estate and other premium industries where purchasing decisions are considered, high-value and often global in nature.

Why Premium Clients Choose ADMAKERS

Strategic Depth

AdMakers’ approach is rooted in strategic thinking and holistic, integrated execution rather than the traditional often fragmented ‘specialist’ agency model. Rather than producing isolated campaigns, AdMakers highly experienced through-the-line senior management team works closely with carefully selected clients to develop long-term brand and marketing strategies aligned to broader commercial objectives. These strategies are then executed across the full marketing ecosystem – all by in-house specialists - from brand development and advertising to media planning and buying, digital performance marketing, lead generation, content production and CRM.

Integrated Execution

AdMakers operates as a fully integrated agency with capabilities spanning strategy, creative development, digital and traditional media planning and buying, television and film production, CGI and AI-enhanced content creation, and performance marketing. Housing all of these capabilities under one roof, allows the agency to deliver cohesive and highly effective campaigns, while maintaining efficiency and consistency across channels.

Based in Cape Town and Johannesburg. Operating Globally.

Cape Town’s reputation as one of the world’s leading production destinations also enables AdMakers to support its international brands with high-quality commercial production and branded content. The region’s diverse locations, experienced production crews and favourable production economics, make it an attractive alternative to many traditional global filming hubs.

Global Leverage Through EARTHOVER

In addition to its South African operations, AdMakers is a founding partner of EARTHOVER, a global collective of the world’s foremost independently owned advertising agencies. The network connects dozens of owner-led agencies across all continents and countries, allowing global clients to access local market expertise and creative resources, while maintaining the commitment to excellence, the agility and accountability of the world’s best independent, owner-operated ad agencies.

Over the years AdMakers has also been acknowledged as an authority in marketing premium local and global real estate developments, and has received more than 100 International Property Awards since first entering the ‘Oscars of the Real Estate World’ in 2001 – making it the world’s most awarded real estate marketing company.

Today AdMakers continues to partner with premium brands seeking strategic direction, creative excellence and measurable growth, both in Southern Africa and internationally.
