Celebrating International Success
We’re proud to share that PHMG has received one of the UK’s most prestigious business honours — The King’s Award for Enterprise in International Trade. This award recognises outstanding achievement in global growth and marks a major milestone for our team, our clients, and our continued success around the world.
A seal of excellence
The King’s Award is the highest official recognition a UK business can receive — reserved for companies that show steep and sustained international success. We’re proud to have consistently exceeded those benchmarks, with more than 80% of our work now delivered to global markets, and long-term commercial growth led by our teams across Manchester, Chicago and beyond.
Award-winning growth, worldwide impact
With clients in over 50 countries and a growing reputation in regions like North America, Europe and Australasia, this award reflects years of focus, collaboration and creativity. It’s also a testament to every person at PHMG who’s helped bring our sound to the world — and to the 37,000+ brands who’ve trusted us to tell their story. It’s more than a trophy. It’s a moment of recognition for the care and craft that goes into everything we do. And it’s a reminder that sound, when done right, travels far.

A milestone in a landmark year
This award comes at a pivotal time for PHMG. In April 2025, we transitioned to an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT) — giving our people a true stake in the future of the company. It’s a move that reflects our values of independence, innovation and shared success.
Looking ahead
This award is not only a celebration of what we’ve achieved — but a powerful marker of what comes next. With a focus on sustainable growth, creative excellence and long-term value for clients and employees, PHMG is proud to lead the way in audio branding on a global scale.
We are honoured to receive this royal recognition and proud to represent the UK’s world-class creative and technology sector on the international stage.
