Coca-Cola has asked the Interpublic Group of Cos. to dev-elop a consistent brand message for Coke Classic across all communications platforms, which agencies must follow in every local market.

IPG’s McCann-Erickson Worldwide is on the Coke Classic roster, as is dRush, the urban-marketing subsidiary of newly acquired Deutsch. IPG shop Lowe Lintas & Partners handles duties on Coke’s Sprite brand.

In a statement released Friday after the stock markets had closed, Coke said IPG would act as “creative consultant and idea generator at the global level.”
