Suburban Franchise Systems has retained Fricks/Firestone to relaunch its brand.

Billings are undisclosed.

The Atlanta client had been searching for an agency to handle a positioning assignment. SFS president and chief executive officer Kevin Lewis said he hired the Atlanta agency to handle all marketing responsibilities on a retainer basis. Compensation is also tied to the company’s expansion.

SFS was formed May 1 by a consortium of former franchisees of Suburban Lodges of America. That consolidation followed the merger of SLA with Intown Suites Management of Atlanta.

“This [franchisee-only] business model creates an extremely empathetic corporate culture,” said Lewis.
