Independent media agency HM Communication Group has managed to again fight off its global multinational competitors to retain the $10.5m Coty cosmetics media account.

Mumbrella first revealed the global pitch back in April with HM Communications, formerly Hyland Media, facing off against a shortlist of global players vying for the account thought to have included Omnicom, Havas and ZenithOptimedia.

Gavin Blackburn, Coty Australia Managing Director commented in a statement this morning: “Coty Australia and Hyland Media have enjoyed a unique partnership over more than 14 years.

“This journey together has seen Coty Australia grow from $15m annual turnover to a business approaching $200m, delivering performance outcomes that are recognised as amongst the best in the Coty world.”
