NEW YORK Procter & Gamble has confirmed shifting Gillette overseas business that has been with McCann Erickson to Omnicom Group’s BBDO, Gillette’s lead U.S. agency. This marks the second time this week client conflicts may have been a factor in McCann losing business.

The shift, involving men’s blade and razor assignments, is effective Aug. 15 (when the client’s contract with McCann ends), and is being made to consolidate the work under a single global shop, a P&G representative said.
