Cartelux was established by Joshua Williams in 2012 as a digital video agency, with a primary focus on developing innovative Youtube advertising strategies and videos for retailers. It didn’t take long for Cartelux to gain a strong foothold in the industry, and the agency onboarded prestigious clients such as Google, CoreLogic, LendLease and VMWare. While working with these global brands, Joshua realized that the process of creating and reproducing video content for local contexts was often inefficient and created redundancies in creative rework and media buy, resulting in little to no results.
To address this issue, Cartelux began developing an adtech solution to help synergise cross-tier video campaigns. In 2018, Mini Australia became the first client to work with Cartelux’s adtech platform, and the product was tailored and developed to meet the unique needs of the client. In 2020, Cartelux officially relaunched as an adtech platform that empowers retail networks to create, reproduce, and measure digital marketing campaigns. While initially focused on the automotive industry, Cartelux is planning to expand into other categories in 2023.
“Cartelux is an easy-to-scale global-first platform that simplifies the enduring process of creating, localising, amplifying and measuring a marketing campaign. From the national sales company to the local dealer, it enables a truly integrated marketing approach without redundancies.”

The principle ‘believe in motion’ refers to the power of the motion picture, which links to Caretelux’s first product. While Cartelux is no longer a video agency, this principle will always remain at our heart because we love creative work and are driven to see fantastic assets scale.
Our team boasts exceptional expertise within the automotive, media, retail, and technology industries. We are fueled by passion and determination. Our commitment lies in utilising innovative technology to revolutionise and democratise the digital advertising industry.
