History

The establishment of MRM//McCann, part of McCann Worldgroup, can be traced back several ways.

In 1985, McCann Erickson (owned by the Interpublic Group of Companies) bought March Advertising & Direct Marketing, founded in 1962, and renamed it McCann Direct. In 1996, the agency was rebranded as MRM after direct marketing executive Stan Rapp joined as head of the company. It was then renamed MRM (McCann Relationship Marketing) Partners in 2001 when Zentropy Partners was merged into MRM. In 2005, it was rebranded MRM Worldwide, one year after worldwide CEO Reuben Hendell was hired. In 2014, the company was rebranded again to MRM//McCann.
