Vistar Media, a global provider of technology solutions for out-of-home media, is partnering with VIOOH to extend its footprint across JCDecaux’s programmatic advertising inventory in mainland China.

Vistar’s advertising partners will now have access to JCDecaux’s leading network of 864 premium DOOH screens in Beijing and Shanghai, with additional inventory being integrated by the end of 2024. 

VIOOH – second on our MarTech 50 ranking this year – has ambitious expansion plans for the second half of 2024, targeting high-value mediums at two Shanghai airports for maximum market presence.

“We’re excited to announce our partnership with VIOOH in China, and to expand Vistar’s already growing presence across the country,” said Eugenie Chen, SVP, strategy & partnerships at Vistar Media. 

“This partnership means that our expansive network of demand clients now have access to JCDecaux’s high-quality inventory across Mainland China – enabling global advertisers to reach the nation’s largest affluent audience in a meaningful, contextually relevant way.”
