If like attracts like, it’s little surprise that many of Australia’s best brands choose to work with the leading custom publisher of lifestyle, health, travel, finance, food and fashion titles (yes, that’s us).

Pacific+ Custom has a proud history of helping some of Australia’s best brands build meaningful connections with their clients through content that engages their interests and anticipates their needs.

And if you’ll allow us to pat ourselves on the back, it’s worth mentioning that our work has won some serious accolades...

international awards

Pacific+ has achieved outstanding recognition at the 2011 Annual Folio: Awards for editorial and design excellence announced in New York, winning a total of nine awards, including four gold.

The incredible list includes:

  • Gold Eddies for Tasmania – Choose Your Own Adventure (Supplemental Annual/One Shot, Full Issue), Virgin Australia Voyeur June 2011 (Custom, Frequency 6 or more times a year, Full Issue),
  • Gold Ozzies for Melbourne Cup Carnival (Best Overall Design, Association / Non-Profit), Tasmania – Choose your own trip to remember (Best Supplemental Annual or One Shot);
  • Silver Eddies for Lexus Magazine (Custom, Frequency less than 6 times a year, Full Issue), Monument (Consumer, Shelter/Home, Full Issue)
  • a Silver Ozzie for Wild Life (Best Redesign, Custom),
  • Bronze Ozzies for Virgin Australia Voyeur (Best Redesign, Custom), Virgin Australia Voyeur “A Cut Above” ( Best Use of Illustration, Custom)

Last year we took out a Gold Ozzie Award for Best Use of Photography for Monument Magazine and a Gold Eddie for Weight Watchers Magazine - Best Full Issue, Consumer Health/Fitness.

We also received a Silver Ozzie award for Melbourne Cup Carnival - Best Overall Design, Custom and silver for Virgin Blue Voyeur - Best Use of Digital Imagery, Custom.

This follows gold award wins at the same awards in 2007 for Weight Watchers Magazine - Best Custom Publication and, in 2008 where we won the Bronze Eddie Award for Single Feature for Vital Health and the Bronze Ozzie for Best Use of Digital Imagery (Custom) for CEO

In 2007, we also received a nod from the APA (Association of Publishing Agencies) for Virgin Blue Voyeur, which was highly commended for the Best Travel & Leisure Title.

local awards

It was twice as nice when Weight Watchers won Highly Commended Magazine of the Year in the MPA (Magazine Publishers of Australia) Awards two years in a row – 2006 and 2007. And in 2008, Vital Health received the Media QUM (Quality Use of Medicines) Award for its in-depth series of features on generic medicines.

But the awards haven’t gone to our head – we like to share the glory with our clients. They entrust us with their brands and we’re committed to delivering the best results.
