McCormick names dentsu X as global media agency

By Abimbola Mohammed

densu X has been appointed by McCormick & Company as the global media agency of record, following a competitive review. McCormick & Company, Incorporated, is a global leader in flavour and one of the food industry’s largest producers of herbs, spices, seasoning mixes, condiments, and flavour products worldwide.

dentsu X will now be responsible for delivering full funnel media strategy, planning, and buying globally for the full suite of McCormick household brands including French’s, Schwartz, Ducros, Frank’s RedHot, and more.

Dentsu X has been working with McCormick for nearly 10 years in select markets across the globe, including Australia and China, and most recently secured AOR status for McCormick in the United States and Canada in 2020. The agency network now takes on responsibility for all markets globally, including those in Europe, Latin America and Southeast Asia.

Melanie Sifuentes, vice president, global marketing strategy and media, McCormick said: “At McCormick, we know it’s about putting the right ingredients together to get the best result across every facet of our business. When it comes to delivering innovative thinking to fuel our media-driven marketing approach, dentsu X has proven tools and expertise to help us build deeper connections between consumers and our brands. We look forward to growing our relationship with the dentsu X team globally.”

Leah Meranus, chief media officer, dentsu X US, said: “We are incredibly excited to expand our relationship with McCormick and help them create more meaningful connections with consumers and drive value across media investments. Our global team is ready to deliver unique experiences that will enhance consumers’ flavour profiles around the world as we defy convention together.”

The win builds on what has been a momentous 2022 for dentsu X, which was recently named the fastest growing media agency globally by RECMA for the fourth consecutive year and winner of the 2022 Media Network of the Year by Cannes Lions’ sister awards: Eurobest.
