Grey has won lead creative duties on Red Lobster after a review, the WPP Group shop has confirmed.

Four agencies pitched the business, but in the end the contest was between Grey and Publicis Groupe’s Saatchi & Saatchi, according to sources. Each shop pursued the account from its New York office.

Major media spending on the brand totaled more than $115 million last year, according to Nielsen. That figure does not include online spending.

Red Lobster’s parent company is Darden Restaurants.
