Arby's has found a new lead agency.

Fallon has landed creative responsibilities on the fast food chain after a review, Arby's has confirmed. The other finalists were The Martin Agency and BBDO.

Annual media spending is estimated at $125 million.

The Publicis Groupe shop succeeds MDC Partners' Crispin Porter + Bogusky, which split with Arby's in November. Crispin had handled the account since early 2012.

In making the hire, Rob Lynch, Arby's new brand president and chief marketing officer, cited the strength of the core idea that Fallon pitched and the time agency executives spent getting to know the chain's customers.
