One of the founding directors of Kalua, our mission at the start was simple. To bring the UK's best radio creative minds, audio production skills, and audio industry insight all under one roof.With our own production studios and creative teams in Manchester & London, Kalua are now one of the UK’s leading audio creative houses. Working with advertisers and agencies, we’re an audio creative agency and production company, rolled into one. From our base at Media City UK, we write & produce radio commercials and audio campaigns, delivering them to any radio network or digital audio platform in the UK. We know the audio landscape inside out, know the trends that are influencing current audio creative copy, and know how to create audio that resonates with specific network audiences. We’re also one of the only specialist radio creative companies in the UK, and our commercials are heard by over 17 million people, every week. Our radio creative experience led to us being appointed as the radio partner for BAFTA award winning sitcom "Peter Kay's Car Share", handling all radio writing and production for the series. An award winning creative audio partner for brands, from brief to broadcast. We make your radio campaigns hassle free.
