O’Charley’s is taking its advertising business to the Midwest.

The restaurant chain, after nearly two years with New York shop Merkley + Partners, has hired Doner, which is based in Southfield, Mich., as its new lead agency.

The assignment encompasses both creative and media responsibilities. Annual account revenue is estimated at $1-2 million.

Doner won the business after a review, which came down to a handful of undisclosed agencies. Pile + Co. in Boston managed the process.
