Manchester-based PR agency Brazen has been appointed by Hotel Football to lead its consumer PR, following a competitive pitch process.
The hotel – founded by Class of ’92 Manchester United players Gary Neville, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Nicky Butt and Phil Neville and situated just a stone’s throw from Old Trafford – has tasked Brazen with running a press office and creating newsmaking moments across its accommodation, events, conference, and restaurant offering.
The account will sit within Brazen’s Boutique division, which specialises in supporting North West hospitality brands. The team will focus on generating standout stories and media buzz to position Hotel Football as a must-visit destination for both locals and visitors to Manchester.
