ABOUT HOWDY
HOWDY is a founder-led independent creative agency from Amsterdam, founded in 2022.
We believe strong brands start with a strong idea. One that makes people stop, look twice and remember. We call that struikelkracht©.
We develop brand strategies, creative concepts and campaigns, and take them all the way through production.
Decades of experience in creativity, strategy and production come together at HOWDY, creating work for ambitious brands that want to stand out.
Our work has been recognised by ADCN, Effie, SAN Accent and NIMA.
