Since its introduction to the New Zealand market late in 2012, DARKHORSE has had major growth in both its team and client list. DARKHORSE work closely with an impressive group of lifestyle and luxury brands and is excited to announce being awarded the full PR and event activation contracts for both Moët Hennessy New Zealand and Orsini Fine Jewellery.

“We are excited to include Orsini into the DARKHORSE family of brands.

We are looking forward to working with Sarah and the team at Orsini in 2015.” Mike Hewitt, Co-founder DARKHORSE.
Moët Hennessy, which manages some of the most prestigious champagne, wine and spirit brands in the world, has announced sole agency representation by DARKHORSE.
DARKHORSE will now be managing the full PR and event contracts for their entire portfolio which includes Moët & Chandon, Veuve Clicquot, Dom Pérignon, Hennessy, Glenmorangie, Belvedere, Grand Marnier, Krug, Ardbeg, Ruinart, Chandon, Cape Mentelle, and Cloudy Bay.
The win comes off the back of two successful years of event activations for Moët Hennessy. Over the past two years DARKHORSE has run a number of successful activations for their key brands such as Moët & Chandon, Veuve Clicquot and Belvedere with the likes of Clicquot in the Snow, The BMW Polo Open, and the ASB Classic and Heineken Tennis tournaments to name a few.
“We have been over-investing in to the PR side of DARKHORSE over the past 24 months. Off the back of some great work by our PR team with the likes of DOMO Luxury Furniture Concepts and Storm & India Tea Sisters, this has led to us winning both the PR and Events business for the full Moët Hennessy account. This is a great win and will help further strengthen the PR division of DARKHORSE.” Mike Hewitt, Co-founder DARKHORSE.
“We are thrilled to represent the full portfolio of Moët Hennessy brands for both PR and Events. We have been working with the team at Moët Hennessy for the past 24 months and have created great momentum to date and are looking forward to accelerating that with some exciting projects on the horizon. ” Liam Taylor, Co-founder DARKHORSE.
To assist with the strong growth over the past 12 months DARKHORSE has recently added three talented individuals to the team with the addition of Production Manager Brendon Wheatley, Activation Specialist Nicola Jones and PR and Activation Support Millie Sylvester.
The DARKHORSE team is excited to add these prestigious brands to their full representation portfolio and will be celebrating the win with a glass of champagne.
