Still Going Strong

Today, Mearns & Gill is a fully integrated marketing and design agency, offering advertising and PR, branding, web, digital, event management, and media solutions.

We've weathered a global pandemic, adapted to a rapidly changing media landscape, and continued to build relationships that last, some spanning decades, others just beginning.

The world James and Agnes Mearns entered in 1936 is unrecognisable now. Guidebooks have given way to websites. Hot metal typesetting has been replaced by digital design. Portacabins and switchboards are long gone.

But the principles remain the same: do great work, build trust, go the extra mile, and treat relationships as partnerships. When a postal strike threatened a campaign in the 1970s, we drove through the night to deliver artwork by hand. When Total needed an impossible event in the 2000s, we made it happen. When BT needed a national education programme in the 1990s, we delivered.

We're still here. Still rooted in Aberdeen, and still helping businesses, from local startups to national brands, tell their stories and grow.

If you're looking for a team that brings ideas to life, we'd love to work with you.
