FOUR SEASONS SHORTLISTS FOUR SHOPS
By Adnews Staff
Toronto-based Four Season Hotels and Resorts has shortlisted four agencies in its creative advertising review. Mullen based in Wenham, MA, Margeotes Fertitta and Partners Inc. of New York, Toronto-based Leo Burnett Company Ltd. and the Toronto and New York offices of Ogilvy and Mather have all been shortlisted. Susan Helstab, spokesperson for Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts said a decision is expected by mid-March. The incumbent on the account, Lowe Lintas & Partners Worldwide of New York, declined to participate in the review. The decision not to participate ended a 15 year relationship between the two companies. The media account for Four Seasons, handled by Toronto-based Starcom, is not included in the review.
