WPP began as a maker of wire shopping baskets and teapots called Wire and Plastic Products in 1985. Sir Martin Sorrell took a controlling stake in the company and renamed it WPP, which has since become a world leader in communications, experience, commerce, and technology. WPP has grown through acquisitions and organic growth, and it has been at the forefront of modernizing the industry by applying data and technology to communications, integrating different marketing services, and prioritizing sustainability. WPP is known for valuing creative talent and achieving business results for clients. It has also made progress in promoting gender equality and is working towards diversity, equity, and inclusion goals.
