Teesside’s Petite Agency Goes Global with Major European Contract Win

TEESSIDE, UK. June 23rd, 2026 – Petite Agency, one of the fastest-growing social media businesses in the North East, has secured its first major European contract, a milestone that marks a significant step in the agency’s international growth.
The partnership will see Petite support marketing activity across Germany, Sweden and the Benelux region for global scaffolding and access solutions leader AT-PAC.
The appointment follows a successful period supporting AT-PAC’s UK operations over the past year, where Petite worked closely with the business on social media strategy, content creation and brand positioning.
Earlier this year, the Petite team travelled to Sweden to deliver a large-scale content project, capturing one of Europe’s most significant temporary weather protection structures. The project not only marked the agency’s first international shoot, but also demonstrated its ability to deliver high-quality, technically-led content on a global stage.
This work played a key role in securing the extended contract, which will now see Petite support AT-PAC’s marketing activity across multiple European territories.
Founded by social media and personal brand specialist Sophia Gowland in 2020, Petite Agency has grown from a solo operation to a team of eight, doubling in size over the last year alongside significant turnover growth. The agency has recently relocated to a larger office to support its continued expansion.

Petite’s roots are in social-first B2B marketing, with recognised expertise across construction, property and professional services, while continuing to work across a wider mix of sectors.

Sophia Gowland, Founder and Director of Petite Agency, said: “This is a big milestone for us as an agency, but it’s come off the back of a lot of consistent hard work and growth over the last few years.

“We’ve focused on building Petite into a team known for commercially-led, strategic work in specialist sectors, and that’s what’s opened the door to opportunities like this.
“A big part of this has been the trust AT-PAC has placed in us, particularly in giving us the opportunity to step into international work and deliver at that level.

“It’s a really exciting step for us and a clear indication of where Petite is heading.”

The AT-PAC contract reflects the agency’s ‘small name, big ideas’ philosophy, proving that a lean, specialist team can deliver at a level typically associated with much larger agencies.
As Petite Agency continues to strengthen its presence across European markets, the agency has set its sights on achieving £1m+ turnover, a milestone that would mark a significant step change from where the business started just six years ago.

To support this growth, Petite plans to continue recruiting and expanding its team in the coming months, building on existing client relationships while working with ambitious businesses looking to strengthen their visibility and position in competitive markets across the UK and internationally.
