Automotive aftermarket retailer Advance Auto Parts has selected Publicis Groupe’s Starcom to handle its media planning and buying assignment without a review, the company has confirmed.

The client has also awarded multicultural planning and buying chores to Starcom sibling Tapestry. Both agencies are based in Chicago.

The client spent $21 million in domestic measured media from January to November of last year, after spending $30 million for full-year 2008, according to Nielsen.

The selections came after the two shops handled project work for the client.
