Agencies have just a few days left to submit their company details for Prolific North’s inaugural Top 150 Agencies ranking for 2026, as the deadline of Friday 14 August is fast approaching.
As announced earlier this year, Prolific North is merging its three prestigious Top 50 agency rankings across PR, Integrated and Digital into one flagship benchmark list: Top 150 Agencies.
The new ranking is designed to reflect the reality of today’s market, where agencies are increasingly defined not by channel, but by their capability, creativity and commercial performance.
Based on a combination of financial and company data, the Top 150 will once again be compiled by Prolific North’s long-standing independent research partner, Mustard.
Mustard is accepting submissions from agencies across the North until 14 August. To be considered for the ranking, agencies or their representatives should please email the team directly via [email protected]. You can also directly submit using this form here.
New specialist sub-list rankings to launch
Alongside the flagship Top 150 Agencies list, which will be revealed in October, Prolific North will also introduce a series of specialist sub-lists and sector rankings, drawn from the main ranking.
These will be published towards the end of September and provide deeper insight into the diversity of the northern agency landscape, recognising top performance across a range of agency types and areas of expertise.
During the submission process, Mustard will ask you to identify up to three of those specialisms that best reflect the areas that account for the largest share of your agency’s revenue.
All eligible agencies are considered for the Top 150 Northern Agencies list, as well as the specialist lists that relate to your agency’s selected specialisms. And by submitting your agency’s details, Mustard will be able to ensure that the most up-to-date information is used. Good luck!
