Dunn&Co. Dominates the AAF Tampa Bay 2016 Addy Awards


We are excited to announce that Dunn&Co. won 29 total ADDY® awards, more than double the amount of any other participating agency, at the AAF Tampa Bay (American Advertising Federation of Tampa Bay) 2016 ADDY® Awards on February 18, 2016. The awards included: one Best of Bay (for its packaging elements of Banyan Reserve vodka) and two Judge’s Choice awards for Best Design (Old St. Pete spirits packaging) and Copywriting (Hexa watches website). Of the 29 awards, 19 were Gold in their respective categories.

The award-winning work was created for a variety of media, including: TV broadcast, radio broadcast, packaging, digital/web, outdoor, video, illustration and several multimedia campaigns. The ADDYs recognized the agency’s work on behalf of clients: Tampa Bay Lightning, Tampa Bay Rowdies, Hexa watches, Joffrey’s Coffee and Tea Company, CSCU, St. Petersburg Distillery, Ralph’s Mob and The United Way.

“It was quite an evening, hearing our name called over and over again,” said Dunn&Co. President and Chief Creative Officer Troy Dunn. “As always, we feel creating work that is recognized by our peers as the industry’s best is just another form of recognition that what we do will help our clients become famous, which usually leads to improved sales and profits. Winning in so many categories and in so many different media makes me feel we’re really offering a consistently exceptional product across the board.”

Dunn&Co.’s winning pieces will now move on to compete at the district level competition that will be held in Tampa, Florida later this year for a chance to be forwarded to the national stage of the American Advertising Federation Awards in Anaheim, California.
