From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

KesselsKramer was an independent advertising agency established by Erik Kessels and Johan Kramer [nl] in 1996 and closed for bankruptcy in 2026.[1] It was based in Amsterdam with offices in London and Los Angeles, and a staff of about fifty.

Tim Clark, writing in Time, called KesselsKramer "legendary and unorthodox".[2] Its notable advertising campaigns have been "The Worst Hotel In The World" for Hans Brinker Budget Hotel in Amsterdam,[3][4][5] and "I Amsterdam" for the city of Amsterdam.[6] KesselsKramer has also worked for brands such as Nike, Levi's,[7] Diageo,[8] and developed the brands citizenM, Ben NL and Bol.com.[9] Among current clients are NEMO Science Museum,[10][11] Van Lanschot, and the International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam.[12]

The leadership of KesselsKramer was formed by four partners: Matthijs de Jongh and Dave Bell, who have been partners since 1998, and Gijs van den Berg and Rens de Jonge, who both joined the partnership in 2018.[13]
