Leo Burnett Worldwide (US)


Leo Burnett is among the world's best-known agency brands. The agency capped the 1990s with a showstopping deal which combined the forces of three major agency groups. In 1999, Burnett's sealed a deal with D'Arcy parent MacManus, stealing that business from under Interpublic's nose for $1bn; then sold a 20% stake in the combined group to Japanese giant Dentsu for $400m to create one of the world's biggest marketing groups, named Bcom3. The final twist came in 2002 with capture of Bcom3 by Publicis. In 2007, Leo Burnett merged with below-the-line unit Arc Worldwide under a single management team, although it continues to use both brands. Advertising Age estimated advertising revenues of $717bn in 2007, making Leo Burnett the #12 agency network worldwide. Click here for the Adbrands.net profile (subscribers only); or subscribe to Adbrands.net here.
