THE PRIMITIVE HUB
Localising global brands to authentically connect with the South African audience.
PRIMITIVE is a women-owned brand and communications agency with full-service conceptual, strategy, production and execution capabilities.
We take global brands and make them locally-relevant, by telling stories in unique ways that provoke thought, build real connections, shift behaviour and drive change.
PRIMITIVE
:not derived :original
preserving the character of an early stage in the evolutionary or historical development of something.
Used to describe something that is original, authentic, or in its purest form.
A great story outshines the campfire it originates from and spreads farther and faster than a well-fueled flame ever could. At our core, we believe that storytelling is not just a means of communication; it's the ultimate legacy that has united us throughout the ages. We leave out corporate jargon and instead, prove the relevance and impact of localising your content to authentically connect and engage with your audience.
Our mission is less about pushing product and more about giving your audience something of real value. We leave a lasting legacy by telling impact led stories that bring about change (and sales).
