Why? Because it’s never been about us.

In 1972, Dan Aloysius Mealey, Ewing Butler Hawkins and John Clark Hawkins started AB&C. They didn’t use their last names because they wanted the focus to be on our clients’ names, not theirs.

We’re the largest independently owned ad agency in the mid-Atlantic. That’s a fancy way of saying we only answer to ourselves and our clients.

We know who got us to where we are. It’s the people who put their hearts and their heads into it every single day. We’re proud to be in such good company.

We’re not in it for the recognition, but we’d be lying if we said we aren’t proud of our 100+ awards in the past three years.

Everyone can call AB&C home. We’re proud to have team members representing the Independence Business Alliance—Greater Philadelphia’s LGBT Chamber of Commerce; PHL Diversity; and the Coalition for Social Equity in Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania.
