ts first campaign is expected to launch this summer.
“We have really enjoyed the journey so far with Pablo,” Hipperson said.
“They are an exciting agency with their feet firmly on the ground, going to great lengths to get really under the skin of our business.
“At Holland & Barrett we really care about helping people live a healthy and happy life and treading light on the earth while doing so.
