Horizon Wins $415 Million U.S. LG Electronics Assignment

LG Electronics USA is naming Horizon Media as its media agency of record, following a formal review. The incumbent was WPP's Mindshare. 

Horizon Media will be responsible for communications planning and paid media activation across all channels for LG Electronics’ three primary U.S divisions -- home appliances, home entertainment and mobile phones.  

Last year, LG Electronics spent $415 million on advertising, according to Kantar Media.  

Horizon's data analytics helped to win this account. 

“Horizon has demonstrated a deep understanding of our consumer segments in the U.S. and has the innovative thinking to help us engage with the right audience and bring the LG experience to life," stated David VanderWaal, vice president of marketing, LG Electronics USA.

LG sells home appliances, home entertainment products, mobile phones, commercial displays, air conditioning systems and solar energy solutions in the United States, all under LG's "Life's Good" marketing theme.
