ACOYA, renowned for spotlighting organisations that are shaping Africa's future, acknowledged Ogilvy Africa Network in the category of Marketing and Advertising Agencies (Large) for its contribution to building brands and delivering transformative marketing and communications solutions, says Ogilvy.

The award was presented at the ACOYA 2025 Gala Dinner on Thursday, 19 June in Dar es Salaam, where Africa's business leaders gathered to celebrate this year's honorees, adds the agency.

"We are deeply honoured to be recognised by the ACOYA Awards," says Vikas Mehta, Regional CEO of Ogilvy Africa Network. "This recognition is a reflection of the relentless passion, creativity and commitment of our teams across the continent. I want to sincerely thank every member of the Ogilvy Africa Network and the incredible clients who trust us to bring bold ideas to life every day. This award belongs to all of you."

Ogilvy says this milestone reaffirms the Ogilvy Africa Network's belief that creativity, when applied with purpose and precision, is a powerful force for business and societal progress. It also underscores the network's ambition to bring the best of the world in service of Africa by combining global best practices with local insight.

ACOYA has emerged as a premier platform for recognising high-performing African enterprises. Participating organisations are assessed in terms of the soundness of their business processes and the sustainability of their results year after year, while creating a culture which values continuous learning and improvement. The awards not only serve as a celebration but also fosters strategic dialogue on best practices, long-term resilience and replicable business models tailored for the African context, says the agency.

Ogilvy concludes that the regional acknowledgement deepens the significance of this award for the Ogilvy Africa Network, reflecting its commitment to the continent and the growing importance of African excellence on the global stage.
