The Grey Group added to their haul with their brand, Pantene, being named Brand of the Year and P&G being named Market of the Year.

“Pantene’s “More Freedom In Job-Hunting Hair” (Pantene) is based on the deep-seated Japanese cultural insight – job-hunters have to follow unspoken hair rules to show their obedience if they want to get a job. We initiated this project to free job-hunters from uniformity and conformity that are symbolized by hair, and cerebrate the beauty of diversity and individuality,” said Rui Nago, Executive Planning Director at Grey Japan.

“I am very honored that this project has been recognized for making the positive change in our society. I am also very pleased that we can share this achievement with Pantene, who were named Brand of The Year and P&G who won Marketer of The Year. Congratulations to them as well.”
