Omnicom Group’s Zimmerman this month launches its first work for Boston Market after picking up the business sans review, an agency representative said today.

The agency in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., added creative and media chores in recent weeks after the chain split with Publicis Groupe’s Fallon in Minneapolis. Fallon’s work for Boston Market included last year’s oddball campaign that asked how far folks would go for a taste of Boston Market’s Crispy Country Chicken.

Despite its high profile, the restaurant chain has cut ad spending drastically of late, tallying about $5 million last year after consistently spending $20 million-plus annually just a few years earlier, per Nielsen.

Spending levels moving forward are expected to increase significantly and Zimmerman plans a push that will include traditional and online media, the rep said.
