HOBART LTD. CHOOSES ROANOKE AD AGENCY

Hobart Companies Ltd. has retained The Jack Smith Agency of Roanoke as its new advertising agency of record.

Hobart Companies, which is headquartered in Richmond, had used a Richmond advertising firm.

K. Bruce Hobart, president, said the Roanoke agency will market the company as well as its individual real estate development projects.

The Jack Smith Agency will focus first on Colonnade II, a three-building, 140,000-square-foot expansion of the Colonnade Corporate Center on Virginia 419. It is scheduled for completion in July.
