May 25, 2021 WINNIPEG, MB — Sherpa Marketing and McKim Communications Group are officially joining forces to create an integrated marketing services powerhouse. Sherpa’s industry-leading digital marketing solutions are complementary to McKim’s renowned strategic and creative advertising practice and the combined companies are primed to make a major impact in the Canadian marketing industry.

“I am thrilled to announce that after 25 years of ‘going it alone,’ my partners and I have merged Sherpa Marketing with McKim Communications Group,” said Marty Fisher, President of Sherpa Marketing. “Our combined capacities will enable us to win more national and international work as we continue to excel in agriculture, financial services, financial technology, post-secondary education, tourism, healthcare and government verticals. Together, we are positioned for expansion into a variety of sectors including manufacturing and consumer brands.” 

While the two agencies have merged ownership, they will continue to operate as distinct companies under their existing brands, but share services and expertise to optimize solutions for clients. In fact, the two agencies have been sharing client work and winning new business together since 2020.

“After a challenging 2020, here we are in 2021 — thriving, growing and seeing a bright path ahead of us,” said President and CEO of McKim, Peter George, who has also owned an agency for 25 years. “McKim’s merger with Sherpa is going to make a huge difference for our team, and especially for our clients, who are already excited about and benefiting from our combined strengths. The driving force behind McKim has always been creating success for clients through insight, strategy and attention-grabbing creative. Our new partnership with Sherpa adds unbeatable digital expertise to our toolbox.”
