The win, following a Q2 pitch, takes effect January 2025. The contract duration is not known, however, under the remit, PHD will handle planning, buying, and execution of integrated marketing campaigns for Bosch China's corporate segment.

As reported by Campaign earlier, the the win follows PHD's renewal of the $310 million SAIC Volkswagen account (Q1 2024) and the $110 million Volkswagen Group account (Q2 2024).
