Where we came from.

_____

CGT Marketing was created in 2009, but the roots of our company took hold in the 1980s, when Mitch Tobol, Fred Candiotti and Vince Grucci were young men with a passion for marketing and advertising. In 1981 Mitch (the “T” in CGT) formed the Tobol Group, and then in 1987 Fred and Vince (the “C” and “G” in CGT) launched Candiotti and Grucci. In 2004 Candiotti and Grucci purchased Cooper Leder, a well-known Long Island ad agency, to form CGL Communications. CGL Communications and Tobol Group merged in February 2009 to become the CGT Marketing we are today, a full service Long Island advertising and digital marketing agency providing clients with proven services in all areas of marketing, from traditional to the latest in digital.

The right size to meet your needs.
