A growing Teesside-based marketing agency has reached a major milestone after winning its first large-scale European account. The new agreement signals an important chapter in the company’s expansion plans and strengthens its position as an emerging player in international social media marketing.
The partnership will see Petite Agency oversee marketing support across Germany, Sweden and the Benelux region for AT-PAC, a global leader in scaffolding and access solutions.
The appointment follows a successful year working with AT-PAC’s UK division, where Petite delivered social media strategy, content production and brand development support.
Earlier this year, members of the agency travelled to Sweden to manage a major content project, documenting one of Europe’s largest temporary weather protection structures. The assignment represented Petite’s first overseas shoot and showcased the team’s ability to create specialist content for large-scale international projects.
The success of this work helped secure the expanded agreement, allowing the agency to support AT-PAC across several European markets.
Founded in 2020 by social media and personal branding expert Sophia Gowland, Petite Agency has evolved from a one-person business into a team of eight. The company has doubled in size during the last 12 months and recently moved into larger premises to accommodate further growth.
While the agency is recognised for its expertise in social-first B2B marketing, particularly within the construction, property and professional services sectors, it continues to support clients from a broad range of industries.
Sophia Gowland, Founder and Director of Petite Agency, said:
“This is a huge achievement for the business and reflects the work we’ve put in over several years.
We’ve built a reputation for delivering strategic, commercially-focused marketing in specialist industries, which has created opportunities like this.
AT-PAC has shown great confidence in our team, particularly by trusting us with international projects and allowing us to demonstrate what we’re capable of.
It’s an exciting moment for the agency and reinforces our ambitions for the future.”
The new contract highlights Petite’s commitment to its “small name, big ideas” approach, demonstrating that a focused, specialist team can compete with much larger agencies.
Looking ahead, Petite Agency aims to increase its presence across Europe while targeting annual turnover in excess of £1 million. To support these ambitions, the agency plans to continue recruiting talent and developing relationships with businesses seeking stronger market visibility both in the UK and overseas.
