Influencer Marketing Service Takumi expands across Europe.

Takumi, the influencer marketing service, is expanding into five new markets: France, Spain, Italy, Austria and Switzerland; growing its presence to a total of eight markets including UK, Germany, and the U.S. This expansion of one of the UK’s fastest growing businesses is in response to huge demands from brands across Europe for high quality, consistency and authenticity in influencer marketing.

Quality, consistency, and authenticity in influencer marketing is essential – but is increasingly hard for brands and agencies to maintain and replicate at scale.
The expansion offers brands a centralised solution for delivering quality, compelling content across Europe, at scale.

Takumi has always been international in outlook, working with global clients including P&G, Pernod Ricard, Nike and General Mills. The company has long been a champion of transparency in the industry, tackling fraud and investing in technology that sets the standard for brands and influencers.

Adam Williams, CEO Takumi says “Now more than ever before, Instagram influencers are under scrutiny. Brands and their creative partners need to ensure that their creative is being executed effectively, authentically and legitimately.

“Takumi has worked with international brands since its inception. At this pivotal moment, I’m delighted to offer our managed services across Europe – building real relationships between brands, influencers and consumers.”
