After more than 70 years, the name Lintas is looking at retirement.
Under a proposal by Lowe Lintas & Partners Worldwide officials, the Lintas name would be removed from the agency’s offices in 80 countries.
The move is intended to distance Lowe from the packaged-goods reputation associated with the Lintas name, which was born as an acronym for Lever International Advertising Services prior to the 1930 formation of Unilever.
Since it would restore a name that existed prior to Lowe’s merger with the former Ammirati Puris Lintas in October 1999, agency executives believe the name change could go a long way toward re-emphasizing the creative heritage of Lowe.
