8 Is Great, But We Didn't Do It Alone


It's been an exciting week for the G&A team.

First, we've been fortunate enough to grow our family of clients. (More on that to come.)

Then, in this week's edition, Pacific Business News updated its ranking of Hawaii's largest advertising agencies. Gilbert & Associates has moved from the 10th position to number eight in the state. (And we continue to be the largest agency outside of Honolulu.)

A HUGE mahalo to our clients, business network and the entire G&A team and their families. And mahalo to our partners Communications Pacific for your continued support.

It's only because of you that we continue to thrive and are able to contribute to our community, one campaign at a time.
