The story behind SAMPA

SAMPA Marketing Agency was born far from Manchester — in the heart of São Paulo, Brazil. That’s where both Eduardo and Kleber began their creative journeys, each on their own path, driven by a passion for storytelling, design, and visual experiences.
Eduardo took his first steps into the creative world back in 2001, during his very first year at university. From designing bold visuals to leading creative teams, Eduardo climbed quickly, eventually becoming a Creative Director. But as his career evolved, so did his perspective. He found himself pulled toward the bigger picture: strategy, positioning, brand storytelling. He shifted into marketing leadership roles, blending logic with imagination, always keeping one foot in the creative world.
After building a solid career in Brazil, Eduardo’s path took an international turn. In 2011, he moved to Dallas, Texas — a leap into a new culture, new language, new everything. There, he continued to grow, working with a range of companies and an agency, gaining global experience and learning how to adapt ideas for different markets. Nearly nine years later, the journey took him to Europe — first to Italy, and then to the UK.
Kleber’s story with photography began in 2011, back in São Paulo, Brazil. What started as a hobby soon became a calling — a way to capture the world not just as it is, but as it feels. He trained professionally at the renowned Instituto Internacional de Fotografia (IIF), where his passion quickly turned into a craft. In 2016, he moved to Europe, refining his craft in Ireland and later in Milan, Italy — a city where art, fashion, and photography meet on every corner.
Their paths crossed in Manchester, years later. Two Brazilians, two creatives, two different stories — but the same passion for creating meaningful work. Together, they decided to bring their shared experience to life through SAMPA — a name that honours their roots while embracing their global journey.
At SAMPA Marketing Agency, strategy meets creativity. Design, photography, and video come together to tell stories that connect, inspire, and stand out. Whether it’s launching a new product, capturing a space, or shaping a brand’s identity, Eduardo and Kleber bring not just skills, but heart — shaped by years of experience across continents and cultures.
This is SAMPA. Born in Brazil. Built in Manchester. Ready for the world.
