Friendly greetings celebrates summer party for the extended family
On Friday, 120 customers, partners, and friends accepted the invitation to the Garten der Wirtschaft Ziegelhütte. The atmosphere was lively, just like at a big family gathering—and Werbewoche.ch was there.
It was five years ago that Samuel Textor and Pascal Deville founded their agency in a garage. A lot has happened since then: the agency has grown to 20 employees and is now based in a listed stained glass workshop in Zurich's Kreis 4 district. Reason enough for an open-air celebration.
The musical kick-off will be provided by Bernese rapper Greis, who works as a lyricist for Freundliche Grüsse. He will be accompanied by Johny Holiday, the DJ of the Basel hip-hop combo Brandhärd. Holiday is in real life Senior Campaign Manager at Baloise and client of the agency. After a short speech by the two founders, Zurich trap newcomer Lil Bruzy plays a mini-concert. The official part of the anniversary party then ends with the buffet afterwards, before the closest circle of the family turns night into day at around 11 p.m. in the adjacent bowling alley.
In the cozy Ziegelhütte above Zurich Schwamendingen, around 120 guests gathered on Friday to celebrate Freundliche Grüsse.
Just in time for the start of the festival, the late summer sun appeared after a restrained day.
Friends, family, partners, customers - everyone celebrated with Freundliche Grüsse.
