Department 56, a collectibles company based in Eden Prairie, Minn., has contacted several Minneapolis agencies about its $1-2 million advertising account, sources said.
Officials from five agencies said they had received overtures from Department 56, but referred calls to the client for further details. Company officials did not return phone calls. Marketing director Pat van der Lugt is thought to be running the review.
The company has no current agency. Carmichael Lynch Spong, the public relations arm of Minneapolis agency Carmichael Lynch, is Department 56’s public relations agency of record.
