APPLE TREE is a Barcelona-based communications agency focused on consumer brands, technology, healthcare, with international delivery.
View profileMadrid-headquartered international communications agency linking Europe, Latin America and North Africa.

MARCO is an independent international communications agency headquartered in Madrid with a direct office footprint spanning Southern and Western Europe, Latin America, Miami and Casablanca. It combines brand and corporate communications, public affairs, creative, digital and sustainability work for organizations seeking coordinated reputation and market programs across several languages.
With roughly 150 employees reported in independent Spanish business coverage and an office network of about 18 locations, MARCO operates at a scale beyond a typical national independent. Its market position is that of a multi-region challenger to global networks, with particularly strong Iberian and Latin American connectivity.
The agency integrates strategic positioning, media relations, brand campaigns, public affairs, digital and social activation, creative production, reputation management and ESG communication. Its structure is designed to coordinate central strategy while adapting narratives and execution to local political, media and cultural contexts.
MARCO’s documented work spans consumer brands, tourism, healthcare, technology, institutions and corporate reputation. The combination of Brussels public-affairs access and operational teams across Iberia and Latin America is especially relevant for organizations managing both regulatory stakeholders and market-facing communications.
Madrid is the headquarters, supported by Barcelona and offices across Lisbon, Paris, Brussels, Milan, Berlin, Munich and London. Miami, Mexico City, Bogotá, Lima and São Paulo extend coverage through the Americas, while Casablanca adds a North African point of presence.
A human editorial review found consistent public signals around international coordination, multilingual delivery and senior reputation counsel. The exact-match customer-review sample was not sufficiently broad for a reliable ratings comparison, so the overview prioritizes independently reported scale and documented assignments.
El País business coverage describes MARCO as a Spanish-headquartered agency with approximately 150 employees and an international office network. The agency’s public portfolio and leadership record further support delivery across brand, corporate and public-affairs mandates.
Digital strategy, social activation, data-informed audience planning and multimedia production are embedded within the offer. Technology supports cross-market coordination and measurement, but no standalone proprietary software platform was publicly documented.
MARCO’s strongest distinction is the owned-office bridge between Europe and Latin America, reinforced by multilingual teams and public-affairs presence in Brussels. This provides more direct local execution than an affiliate-only model while retaining the accessibility of an independent agency.
Compared with a national Spanish consultancy, MARCO offers substantially wider geographic and language coverage. Compared with a global holding-company network, it presents a more concentrated leadership structure and particular strength in Iberian and Latin American market connections.
