Just days after winning Visa's $200 million global media account, Publicis Groupe's Starcom has added another major media account to its list. 

After speculation last week that Kraft Foods Group was about to announce a media review, Kraft Heinz announced it has awarded its U.S. media business to Starcom following a review of its own. 

"Kraft Heinz has partnered with Starcom to make unprecedented strides in unlocking the value of data in the industry, and we will continue to leverage groundbreaking data innovation to enable our brands to achieve more effective consumer connections at the most effective cost," Michael Mullen, svp of corporate and government affairs for the Kraft Heinz Company, said in a statement. 

"We're incredibly proud of our historical relationship and are thrilled to continue our partnership with Kraft Heinz," said Lisa Donohue, CEO of Starcom USA.
