Godrej, a major manufacturer of FMCG products, has consolidated its

media planning and buying functions with Mumbai-based Madison

Advertising.

Agencies that will take a hit because of this move - which followed

Coca- Cola's lead last year - are Ambience D'Arcy, Hindustan Thompson

(JWT) and Bates.

Godrej was advised by Anderson Consulting, which conducted the

evaluation and final selection.

Madison, which lost its fickle partner DMB&B in 1999 but was voted the

fourth most admired agency by corporates in India this year, went

head-to-head with heavyweights Leo Burnett's Starcom and Mudra for the

Godrej Sara Lee, Godrej Soaps, and Godrej Foods accounts.
