Within a decade, Code Computerlove - founded by Tony Foggett, Louis Georgiou and Wini Tse - has gone from three twenty-somethings working from Tony's back bedroom to one of the UK's most successful and highly regarded digital agencies. The £4.75m turnover business now employs 55 people in its stunning bespoke designed offices on Jutland Street in Manchester City Centre.It's one of only a handful of significant players in the full service digital marketing agency category outside London, offering website design, build and management; campaign strategy and implementation,e-marketing and media buying. From its first client - Dr Martins, Code has attracted some of the world's top brand names including HMV, Waterstone's, Umbro, RHM/Premier Foods - Hovis, Nimble, Sharwoods, Mr Kipling, Bisto, Paxo, Lyon's, Robertson's; Kimberley Clark Corporation - Huggies, Kotex, Little Swimmers, Poise; BUPA, Nokia, NUSSL, Akzo Nobel, Carrier, Refuge, Bruntwood, V&A, Keele University, Crown Paints, PZ Cussons (Imperial Leather, Original Source & Carex), Matalan, Butlins, Brother, NUS, McArthurGlen, NWDA, Hillarys and First TransPennine Express. It's also won a raft of industry awards - more than 50 now - on both a national and regional level. But it's the team's modest attitude and the agency's culture that CEO Tony Foggett is most proud of. Foggett said: "I am often apologetic when I look at where we've come in 10 years and have to pinch myself when I take stock of the successes we've achieved. It's been an amazing decade.Code will be having a 10th Birthday bash in June when it will unveil a new website and marketing collateral. www.codecomputerlove.com
