Doner Company (formerly W. B. Doner & Co.) is an American advertising agency headquartered in Southfield, Michigan.[1] It was founded in 1937 by Wilfred Doner,[2] better known as Brod Doner. The Doner Company also has a United Kingdom-based agency called Doner London.
History
The company opened in Baltimore in 1937 as W. B. Doner & Co. It was founded by Wilfred "Brod" Doner. Doner died in 1990 at the age of 75 and the company later dropped the initials from its name. The company is an independent advertising agent and has long been one of the largest. After a fire destroyed its office in Southfield in 1996, it re-emerged as an international company and expanded its reach to clients outside of the United States.[2]
In April 2012, Doner sold a minority interest to MDC Partners.[3]
