Lowe Campbell Ewald–the U.S. hub for worldwide network Lowe and Partners–announced plans to open an office in New York City. Sal Taibi, most recently general manager at Deutsch New York, has been named president of Lowe Campbell Ewald’s NY office. He will report to Jim Palmer, CEO of Lowe Campbell Ewald. The NY shop is expected to open its doors in January 2014 and will include clients Taibi and his team have worked with previously.
“Our New York office will bolster our national footprint from coast to coast,” said Palmer. “With offices in Detroit, Los Angeles, San Antonio and now New York, plus Lowe’s international talent and distribution channels, Lowe Campbell Ewald is poised to better help clients navigate the ever-evolving global media and marketing environment.”
Taibi said that Lowe Campbell Ewald’s four U.S. offices “will make up a truly national network and great launching pad for global marketers based outside the U.S.”
On July 9, it was announced that Campbell Ewald would become the U.S. hub for the Lowe and Partners Worldwide network. Since that time, the agencies have worked hand-in-hand on shared clients and new business opportunities. Plus Lowe Campbell Ewald has scored several key new business wins, including Cadillac, Atkins, Western Governors University and the Detroit Lions.
Earlier this year, Lowe Campbell Ewald announced it was relocating to downtown Detroit after 35 years in the suburbs. The agency is expected to move into to the J.L. Hudson Warehouse at Ford Field in January 2014.
