Aloysius Butler & Clark Acquires Caspari McCormick
Acquisition turns AB&C into the largest full-service independent marketing communications agency in the Delaware Valley.
WILMINGTON, Del. (Jan. 11, 2019) — Aloysius Butler & Clark (AB&C), a full-service marketing communications agency, announced the acquisition of Wilmington-based agency Caspari McCormick. As a result of the acquisition, partners and creative directors Matt Caspari and Sean McCormick, as well as other members of their team, will join AB&C. Caspari McCormick clients include CarSense, Calico, Acts Retirement Life Communities and the Museum of the American Revolution, as well as many others.
The acquisition will make AB&C the largest full-service independent marketing communications agency in the Delaware Valley. Over the past several years, annual growth at AB&C has been steady at a rate of 5 to 10 percent, and the agency projects continued, consistent growth in business and staffing through 2020 and beyond.
The Caspari McCormick team was fully integrated into AB&C’s Wilmington headquarters by Jan. 1, 2019, collaborating with the agency’s team of account services, creative, PR, social, digital and media professionals located in AB&C’s three offices in Pennsylvania and Delaware.
“When you look at the experience Caspari McCormick brings to our agency, this is more than just a little growth spurt,” said Paul Pomeroy, president of AB&C. “Everything about Caspari McCormick — from their core values and professional integrity to their strong commitment to exceeding client expectations and their eagerness to adapt and grow — aligns perfectly with our agency culture. We’re excited for the new opportunities that lie ahead.”
“We’ve known AB&C for years, and we have great respect for what they do,” said Matt Caspari. “These days, branding, advertising and design are just where client needs start, and combining our resources allows us to offer more tools to make our clients successful, with the high level of creativity they’ve come to expect.”
Veterans of agencies from New York to Chicago to London, Caspari and McCormick formed Caspari McCormick in 2001, doing award-winning creative and branding work for a number of high-profile businesses in various consumer segments. Working alongside rather than across the table from clients, their hallmark has always been producing work that captures not just a differentiating strategy, but the unique tone of every brand.
