“The acquisition of Rawle Murdy, and its subsequent expansion, is key for us in the execution of our
strategy” ” said Kyle Ragsdale, CEO, Buffalo Groupe. “Under its new name, BGRM maintains the legacy
of agency leaders, David Rawle and Bruce Murdy, and illustrates the firm’s evolution within Buffalo
Groupe. Charleston has also become the creative and digital hub for all of our companies. As a top
destination with world-class talent and a thriving creative community, there’s no place more fitting
to now serve as the new home for the “Herd.”

Rawle Murdy has a storied history dating back to 1975 when the agency was founded as David L. Rawle
Associates. Rawle Murdy played a key role in establishing and growing the city’s creative industry and the
agency has worked with many of the region’s leading public and private sector businesses. Bruce Murdy
joined the firm in 1987 and was named partner in the re-named firm, Rawle Murdy, to help further grow
the agency’s presence and service offerings. Murdy purchased the agency in 1998 and successfully
guided the agency through its acquisition by Buffalo Groupe in 2019.

“As one of Charleston’s first-ever, full-service marketing firms, Rawle Murdy has a history of driving
progress in the Holy City since 1975,” said Bruce Murdy, Managing Director of Rawle Murdy. “After joining
Buffalo Groupe, we’ve become an important creative driver for this dynamic collective of agencies, thanks
in part to the inspiring place we call home. As we continue to grow and thrive in our hometown, we’re
thrilled to build on our legacy to become BGRM and to have Charleston serve as the base of operations
for Buffalo Groupe.”
