About Us /

Get to know Globecreative

Globecreative operates from Johannesburg, South Africa. We have a TINY core team throughout the year. As we get busier, the team grows as we deploy our vast resource of regular curated creative and management talent. This means, unlike our competitors, you don't subsidise our downtime, which in turn means lower costs to you and a more diverse creative skills pool.

History

Globecreative was founded in Cape Town in 2000 by Matthys Ras. Our first office was at 169 Long Street, Cape Town. Thereafter we had offices one block up in Long Street, Hope Street and Shortmarket Street until we moved to Bellville in the Northern Suburbs of Cape Town in 2011. With various clients in Johannesburg, we made the move there in January 2014 where we still operate from and serve clients all over the world including Cape Town, Johannesburg, Chicago, San Diego, Phoenix, New York, London, Paris and even Reunion Island.
