NEW YORK WPP Group’s Mediaedge:cia has been awarded domestic media strategy, planning and buying for Ikea in the U.S. without a review, the client has confirmed.

The agency will service the account from its Chicago office after the switch from independent Horizon Media takes effect in September.

Ikea spent $85 million on U.S. ads last year, per TNS Media Intelligence.

The move is part of a global consolidation of media chores; Mediaedge already handles Ikea in 14 overseas markets, including China, Japan and Russia.
