Fallon To Open Office In London With Or Without Lee Account

Moving ahead with its longtime plan to expand internationally, Fallon McElligott intends to open an office in London by the summer.
The Minneapolis agency had expressed such an intention a year ago [Adweek, April 7, 1997], and earlier this year suggested launching a London office would be tied to winning the multinational ad account for U.S. client Lee Apparel Co. that it has been pitching. But agency representative Janet Northen said the London move is no longer dependent on a specific account.
