Glenn Davis Group is the management company that oversees the operation of two integrated branding agencies; Davis and Bridgemark.

Both headquartered just outside of Toronto in downtown Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, the agencies’ capabilities include strategy, marketing, brand and package design, digital, production art and pre-media. Sharing an operating mantra of “Dramatic Simplicity™”, both agencies apply this to all areas of operations, including design and client management.

History & Growth

Davis was established in 1971 by founder, Glenn A. Davis as a graphic design studio specializing in fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG). In response to evolving client and marketplace needs, Davis expanded its expertise through the decades.

The early 2000s were a time of rapid and continuous growth with work spanning North America and around the globe. As the agency welcomed its 100th employee, Bridgemark launched as a separate agency to manage growing client conflicts, further solidify client relationships, and nurture a more dynamic Creative Culture for employees. Following Glenn Davis’ retirement in 2007, his three sons (Ron, Steve, and Jeff) assumed leadership duties.

In 2012, Glenn Davis Group was officially formed as the legal operating entity of the two-agency structure.

Combining the strategic discipline of consultancies, the creative force of ad agencies, and the execution of design and pre-media agencies, both Davis and Bridgemark operate today as full-service agencies that connect people to brands in meaningful, engaging ways.
