Burnett Enters Southwest Via TFA Purchase

Chicago-based TFA Communications, a high-tech business-to-business shop with offices in Boston and Dallas, was acquired last week by Leo Burnett of Chicago.
The Dallas office will operate under the new TFA/Leo Burnett Technology banner and begin pursuing larger clients throughout the Southwest, according to director of business development Curtis Young.
Terms of the deal, which gives Burnett its first foothold in the region, were not disclosed.
Young said the eight-person Dallas office’s new business efforts have been concentrated primarily in its home market, Houston, and Austin, Texas.
