Wieden + Kennedy joins UK top 20 with 100% rise in billings

Latest figures released by Nielsen and reported in Campaign show that Wieden + Kennedy has climbed to 19th place in the UK’s top 30 agencies by billings, with a rise of over 100% to £121 million in 2012. This result was achieved through a series of new business wins over the year including Schweppes, Finlandia vodka, FUZE Tea, Southern Comfort and Tesco.

Found the eggs yet?

Easter. It's the biggie after Christmas, right? When we can briefly return to those self indulgent days of feasting and family fun. Just for a long weekend at least. All with the added bonus of chocolate – mostly egg­shaped and with plenty to go around.

We've worked with Google's Street View to ensure the Tesco Easter bunny pays us all a visit this year; so wherever you find yourself this Easter, there will be festive eggs aplomb. Literally tens of thousands of them.

Yes, it's an online treasure hunt. #FindTheEggs is live!

The interaction works like this:

* Get hooked up here on your phone or computer

* Your location is then detected – by GPS or tapping in your post code

* You navigate your way through your local streets, hunting down the virtual eggs on screen

* And when you've sought out three, you're a winner!

* Then you can redeem your chocolate prize from Tesco

And if you spy one for the 50 golden eggs? Well you'll be saying hello to a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 this Easter.

The Easter bunny may need a helping hand so, to share the fun around, you can plant eggs for friends and family to find. And share the free chocolate as you go…

Happy hunting!
