Brandhouse has been appointed to undertake brand strategy for Guinness World Records.

The world record authority, which celebrates its 60th anniversary next year, is looking to increase its global presence in new channels and engage new audiences.

The new strategy is expected to be delivered in 2014 and the work will be led by Brandhouse’s creative director Bronwen Edwards, who has been newly promoted from the position of deputy creative director.

Brandhouse was appointed four months ago following a recommendation, which led to a presentation of credentials and proposal according to Edwards who says, ‘The strategy will translate into creative work.’
