G2 Worldwide Expands North American Presence by Opening Canadian Office

Montreal Location to Service New and Existing Clients, Including ITCAN

G2 Worldwide, a top-five global activation marketing agency, today announced the opening of its first Canadian office, which will be located in Montreal. The office has been initially established to service longtime G2 client Imperial Tobacco Canada (ITCAN), a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of British American Tobacco, with plans to offer marketing-communications services to new and existing G2 clients that currently operate in the Canadian market.

“We recognize the growing importance of the Canadian market, and we thank ITCAN for supporting our Montreal office launch, a concrete demonstration of our growing relationship with such an important, Top 10 Canadian company,” said Joe Celia, CEO, G2 Worldwide. “Expanding our North American footprint allows us to be closer to ITCAN, and will act as a base from which to build a robust offering that will allow us to serve clients in Canada.”

Jerry Quandt will oversee the new G2 Montreal satellite office, which is located in the city’s Central Business District on de La Gauchetiere Street West. Quandt and the G2 Montreal team may be reached via email at [email protected].
