You are currently viewing Double top for beetroot

Our ability to keep finding a winning formula for clients was highlighted once again with two overall class wins at the prestigious Institute of Internal Communication (IoIC) awards 2017.

beetroot scooped the award in the Best New Publication category for Highway – a full service, monthly magazine for Highways England. We also took top honours in the photographic/graphic section for the stunning picture (see above) of Paralympian footballer David Porcher featured in Outside In, our multi award-winning magazine for RBS.

A relative newcomer to our portfolio, Pi – a quarterly 36-page magazine we design for insurance broker Howden – was shortlisted in two categories. With Highway nominated in two further sections and our two airport publications both shortlisted for the fifth year in a row, the awards illustrated beetroot’s enduring ability to stay ahead of the field in an ever-more competitive market.

This year’s double brings beetroot’s total of class wins to 20 over the last five years. What a score!

As well as winning the two classes, beetroot won an impressive twelve Awards of Excellence in the following categories:
