Revolve was a big winner at this year's ICE Awards, Atlantic Canada's advertising industry awards gala held in Halifax on October 28.
The Bedford based branding agency won Gold for Integrated Advertising Campaign, Packaging, Website and Other Broadcast. In addition, the firm's work was recognized with Silver ICE Awards for Instore POS, Logo Design and Brochure/Catalogue.
This was Revolve's biggest ICE awards year ever and the second highest number of awards received by any agency in 2009. The fact that Revolve stood out in seven categories, from broadcast advertising and interactive to package design and POS is a testament to the depth of the Revolve team and their ability to produce award winning work in all areas of branding.
'Our strong showing at this year's ICE Awards is a truly amazing accomplishment and evidence of our passion for producing top quality work, the partnerships that we have with our clients, and the trust they have in us to develop breakthrough ideas to build their brands,' said Phil Otto, President & CEO of Revolve.

About the ICE Awards
ICE is an acronym that stands for Innovation, Creativity and Enterprise. The ICE Awards are organized by a diverse group of Atlantic Canadian advertising and marketing professionals to celebrate creative advertising made in Atlantic Canada, and compete for the coveted crystal ICE Buckets. Now in its eighth year, ICE holds the belief that advocating for best practices in advertising will contribute to Atlantic Canada's economy, while helping attract and serve marketing-oriented businesses. Several hundred submissions from dozens of firms across the region were judged by a panel of respected advertising professionals from outside of Atlantic Canada, including Judging Committee Chair Angus Tucker, Co-Creative Director and Founding Partner of Toronto's John St., as well as senior executives from DDB Canada, TBWA Vancouver, Taxi and Leo Burnett.
