The move comes as Allegro Funds has teamed up with the local Pizza Hut management team to buy the master franchise from US parent Yum! Brands and has recently completed the acquisition of the Eagle Boys chain.

Says Lisa Ransom, CEO, Pizza Hut Australia: “We are delighted to appoint The Monkeys as our lead agency. They showed a great strategic opportunity for Pizza Hut in Australia coupled with a great creative approach.”

Says Mark Green, co-founder and CEO, The Monkeys: “Pizza Hut is a brand we have all grown up with and we are looking forward to helping the local team transform Pizza Hut into a much stronger rival to market leader Domino’s.”

Work has already begun.
