Britain's WPP reports record high in demand

(MENAFN) WPP, the world's biggest advertising group, saw a significant growth in client demand in the United States and parts of Europe, according to Oman Observer. A report by Reuters about the company said that current trading was even stronger than in the first quarter, when WPP posted a much better than expected 7 per cent like-for-like rise in revenue. Chief Executive Martin Sorrell said: "I think we are stronger than the first quarter. April was strong, May was not as strong as April but satisfactory, and at the revenue level very strong. The second quarter if anything will be the same or better than the first quarter."
