SUSSEX, Wis., June 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Quad/Graphics, Inc. (NYSE: QUAD), a marketing experience company that solves complex marketing challenges for its clients, celebrates its inclusion at number 21 in Ad Age's prestigious ranking of the largest agency companies.

Quad marks its sixth year on Ad Age's list of top agencies, ranking no. 21 in 2025.

"Marketing is incredibly complex today and clients are under enormous pressure to drive growth, yet most CMOs feel like they have to choose between close collaboration with senior talent at a boutique agency or the full-funnel capabilities of a major network or holding company, where it's unlikely most clients get the attention, seniority, or focus they deserve," said Tim Maleeny, President of Agency Solutions and Chief Client Strategy Officer for Quad. "Clients of any size should never have to compromise, which is why Quad operates as a seamless extension of our clients' teams in a way that makes integration and collaboration second nature to the way we work. It's a natural evolution of our manufacturing legacy and maker culture, a hands-on approach that puts clients and the work first—always."
