Berry-Brown chairman Bob Berry has sold his majority interest in the Dallas agency to three of the shop’s executives, putting in place a succession plan that will keep the company an independent entity.
Berry will remain at the agency as chairman, while president and chief operating officer Jim Hradecky becomes majority shareholder. Hradecky is joined by senior vice president Sharon Griesing and vice president and chief financial officer Phil Schieber as partners in Berry-Brown.
Berry, who founded the agency in 1977, said the sale was made in order to initiate an in-house succession plan.
