Media News: Green & Black's turns to Starcom

Green & Black's has appointed Starcom to its media planning and buying business as the upmarket chocolate brand grows in scale under new owner Cadbury.

Starcom, which replaces Matters Media on the business, will begin work immediately on a brief for 2007.

In the year to June, Green & Black's spent £1.8m on media, according to Nielsen Media Research, and its investment is due to grow in line with the brand. It is the fastest-growing confectionery brand in its sector, having recorded 54% growth in value in the year to 15 July.

'As we look to expand internationally, the appointment of Starcom will provide access to a media network across key markets,' said Green & Black's marketing director Mark Palmer.
