Ndp, formerly Neathawk, Dubuque and Packett, is acquiring Free Agents Marketing for an undisclosed sum, the companies announced.

Expected to close later this year, the deal will create a firm with $30 million in revenue and nearly 70 employees at offices in Richmond, Hampton Roads, Roanoke and Chattanooga, Tennessee.
