BOSTON Independent French/West/Vaughan said it has acquired a majority stake in Distill, a creatively focused ad agency. Both shops are located in Raleigh, N.C.

As a result of the deal, which is expected to close next month, a new advertising unit will be formed under the name FWV Distilled. Adam Cohen, founder of Distill, will run the day-to-day operations of FWV Distilled as ecd and partner. Financial terms were not disclosed.

“Adam is exactly the kind of creative force I have been looking to align FWV with for some time,” said FWV CEO Rick French.
