Johnson & Johnson
Johnson & Johnson Consumer Health Australia and New Zealand has appointed Omnicom Group as its lead agency following a competitive review. The newly created Omnicom Group multi-disciplined team will provide services including creative, media, digital, public relations, healthcare, social and shopper marketing.

KraftHeinz
KraftHeinz’s $US520 million ($AU$890 million) global media account is reportedly up for pitch. The CPG giant has instituted a review of the account, with its contract with Publicis Groupe’s Starcom ending this year. Starcom, with whom the media media account was consolidated in 2015 following the Kraft Heinz merger, is defending in the review. Nearly all of the major holding companies are expected to compete in the pitch.
