Wenneker Amsterdam scales Kipling global campaign

Wenneker Amsterdam has supported Kipling’s global campaign rollout, developing a modular production system designed to scale the brand’s iconic monkey mascot across multiple markets and formats.

Working with creative agency Good, the campaign balances consistency with flexibility while maintaining the brand’s recognisable identity.

The campaign marks a new phase for Kipling, aiming to refresh its visual identity while preserving the familiarity of a symbol closely tied to the brand’s heritage.

Scaling a recognisable brand asset

At the centre of the campaign is a hero film supported by a wider ecosystem of content, including social edits, digital executions, retail assets, and market-specific adaptations. The approach focuses on maintaining a consistent tone and visual language across all touchpoints.

Wenneker Amsterdam developed the campaign as a modular system from the outset, ensuring that each execution remains connected while allowing for local flexibility. This structure enables the campaign to adapt across platforms without losing its core identity.

A production model built for flexibility

The agency oversaw the full production process, from initial filming through to post-production and global delivery. In addition to delivering campaign assets, Wenneker Amsterdam created a toolkit that allows regional teams to adapt materials efficiently while maintaining brand consistency.

This model reflects a broader shift in global production, where campaigns are designed as adaptable systems rather than fixed outputs, supporting ongoing iteration across channels and markets.

Rogier Smalhout, Director: "The core question was simple. How do you scale personality?"

Maintaining cultural relevance

Kipling’s monkey mascot remains central to the campaign, acting as both a visual anchor and a cultural reference point for audiences familiar with the brand. The work aims to retain that recognition while introducing a refreshed expression suited to a global audience.

By combining a clear creative framework with a scalable production approach, Wenneker Amsterdam has delivered a campaign designed to operate consistently across international markets while preserving the brand’s character.
