Best Advertising Agencies in Miami (2026)

Introduction

Miami is where several of the big advertising networks run their Latin American business, and the 10 agencies below reflect that: network offices and regional hubs, plus Hispanic advertising specialists that have worked from the city for decades. They were chosen for recent work, 2025 and 2026 recognition, and the strength of their client rosters.

The holding companies reorganised heavily over the past year. Omnicom completed its acquisition of IPG at the end of 2025, retired the DDB, FCB and MullenLowe brands and kept BBDO, McCann and TBWA as its creative networks, which brought McCann's Miami office into Omnicom and left Alma trading without the DDB name. In September 2026 Andrew Robertson succeeded Troy Ruhanen as CEO of Omnicom Advertising. WPP announced a combined WPP Creative unit for Latin America in Miami in May 2026, bringing Ogilvy, VML, Grey, AKQA and its design and PR agencies under Horacio Genolet, and WPP Media lists Miami as its Latin America headquarters.

Every agency here has an active Miami-area office in 2026. The list is in no fixed order of merit. Idea-led shops such as GUT, David and Archer Troy are covered on our creative agencies page, and growth, PR and performance firms on the marketing agencies page.

The best advertising agencies in Miami

1. VML Miami

WPP · Miami · vml.com

VML Miami is the local office of WPP's VML network and part of the WPP Creative unit that now groups WPP's agencies in Latin America. The Drum included it in its top Miami creative agencies of 2026, and the wider VML network was named No. 2 Creative Network of the Year at Cannes Lions 2026, its highest placing to date.

The Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau is its best-known local client. In August 2025 VML kept the bureau's agency of record and organic social business after a six-month, two-phase review led by the Miami office, starting its ninth year on the account. Recent work out of Miami includes a 2026 campaign for Colgate. Zubi Advertising in Coral Gables also operates as a VML company.

2. Ogilvy Miami

WPP · Miami · ogilvy.com

Ogilvy runs its Miami office jointly with Mexico. Alfonso Alcocer became managing director for Mexico and Miami in July 2025, and Diego Muñoz has been executive creative director across both since October 2024. Bruno Carneiro da Cunha joined as chief strategy officer in March 2025. Ogilvy sits within WPP Creative in Latin America alongside VML and Grey.

Recent work from the office includes the US launch of the luxury grooming brand SKAURA, work for KFC, and "In Our Hands", a creative platform for the Bahamian beer Kalik. With leadership shared between two countries, ask where the strategy and creative team for your account will sit.

3. TBWA\Media Arts Lab

Omnicom (TBWA) · Miami · mediaartslab.com

TBWA\Media Arts Lab is TBWA's dedicated agency for Apple, and its Miami office runs the work for Latin America, Canada and the US Hispanic market. TBWA is one of the three creative networks Omnicom kept after the IPG deal. Luana Azeredo has been managing director since 2022, and Pedro Prado leads the creative work. The Drum included the office in its top Miami creative agencies of 2026.

Its output centres on "Shot on iPhone": a 2025 film reimagined Mexican folklore with a retro gaming look, and a Carnival short drew on Brazilian cinema. In March 2026 it worked with NHL goaltender Sam Montembeault on a campaign helping young goalies design their own masks on iPad. The agency serves Apple, so it is a reference point for craft in the city more than an option for new briefs.

4. McCann Miami

Omnicom · Blue Lagoon · mccann.com

McCann lists Miami as one of its US offices, at 800 Waterford Way in the Blue Lagoon business district, and the city is the regional base for McCann Worldgroup Latin America & Caribbean, which has agencies in 21 countries in the region. McCann moved from IPG to Omnicom when the acquisition closed at the end of 2025 and is one of Omnicom's three remaining creative networks.

The regional network has been recognised at Effie, FIAP, El Ojo de Iberoamérica and El Sol, and AdForum names Carlos Ernesto Gutierrez as CEO of the Miami office and chief growth officer for Latin America. Since the move to Omnicom, ask how the office now works with Omnicom's media agencies and with sister shops in the city such as Alma and TBWA\Media Arts Lab.

5. WPP Media Latin America

WPP · Miami · wppmedia.com

WPP Media is WPP's media planning and buying business, which replaced GroupM in 2025 and works in more than 80 markets. Its site names Miami as its Latin America headquarters, with offices across the region including Mexico, Chile, Peru, Ecuador, El Salvador, Uruguay, the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico.

It suits advertisers who want media for several Latin American markets planned from one regional team, and it sits alongside WPP's creative agencies in the city, including VML, Ogilvy and Zubi. Ask which of WPP Media's agency brands will hold your business and who in Miami will lead it.

6. Alma

Omnicom · Miami · almaad.com

Alma has been one of the leading US Hispanic agencies for more than two decades. Founded by Luis Miguel Messianu and now led by CEO Isaac Mizrahi, it dropped the DDB suffix when Omnicom retired that brand in late 2025. Campaign named it Multicultural Agency of the Year in 2026, and The Drum included it in its top Miami creative agencies of 2026.

Its 2026 work includes an IKEA tribute to Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show, an IKEA match-day hosting campaign, a summer campaign for Molson Coors and "Fit Checks" for Topo Chico Hard with the sportswear brand CHARLY. Girl Scouts of the USA, PepsiCo and McDonald's are also clients.

7. Zubi Advertising

WPP (VML) · Coral Gables · zubiad.com

Zubi was founded in 1972 and works from Coral Gables, which makes it one of the longest-running Hispanic agencies in the US. It is now part of WPP and operates as a VML company, so clients can draw on a larger network while the Spanish-language creative stays in Miami.

Ford is a client: Zubi made "Camisetron" for the brand and "Remind Me Soap" for Ford Warriors in Pink, the carmaker's breast cancer programme. For advertisers that want a specialist Hispanic team with network media and production behind it, it is one of the more established options in the city.

8. The Community

Miami · thecommunityagency.com

Brothers José and Joaquín Mollá founded The Community (La Comunidad) in 2001, in Miami and Buenos Aires at the same time. SapientNitro (now Publicis Sapient) bought it in 2014. The team spans more than 30 nationalities, and The Drum included the Miami office in its top Miami creative agencies of 2026.

Verizon is its longest-running showcase, from "#VamosPorMás" to "The Leak". Walmart and Netflix are also clients. It suits brands that want one campaign idea to work for general-market and Hispanic audiences at the same time.

9. CCom Group

Minority-owned · Miami · ccomgroupinc.com

CCom Group is a multicultural advertising agency led by co-chairs Manuel E. Machado and Luis Gonzalez Esteves, with Sandra Pastrana as president and Matias Blazevic as executive creative director. It has worked from Miami for more than 20 years. The Drum listed it among Miami's "Local Legends" for 2026 on the strength of the AAF Miami Addys, and in 2022 it was the most awarded agency in South Florida at the Addys, with 34 golds and silvers.

Clients include Florida Power & Light, Southeast Toyota, Neutrogena, University of Miami Health System and the American Red Cross. The agency plans across TV, radio, digital, print and outdoor, produces content in-house and runs a PR team, which suits regional advertisers that want creative and media from one shop.

10. Wow Mktg

Independent, minority-owned · Miami · wowmktg.com

Wow Mktg was founded in 2005 by Jose Dans and has stayed independent since, with a team of about 70 people in Miami. The Drum named it one of Miami's "Local Legends" in both 2025 and 2026, and it runs an internship programme called Ship.

Clients include University of Miami Health System, TelevisaUnivision, CVS Pharmacy and Norwegian Cruise Line. Services cover brand strategy, creative, media, content, production, events and analytics, which makes it a full-service alternative to the network offices for advertisers working mainly in the US.

What to look for in a Miami advertising agency

Start with the remit of the Miami office. Some teams here run pan-regional work for Latin America, some focus on the US Hispanic market, and some do both. Ask which markets the office covers, where the local teams sit, and who signs off the work in each country.

Check the ownership and reporting lines after the 2025 and 2026 changes. McCann and Alma now sit in Omnicom, WPP has grouped its creative agencies in Latin America into one unit, and several offices share leaders with Mexico or other markets. Ask for the current structure and the names of the people who will run your account, since the people in the pitch should be the people doing the work.

Be clear on media and production. Network offices can bring sister media agencies such as WPP Media or Omnicom's media networks, while independents such as CCom Group and Wow Mktg plan and produce in-house. Find out which services are included and which are billed separately, and whether Spanish and Portuguese versions are created in market or adapted from English.

Finally, look at how review and approvals run. A regional campaign can produce dozens of cut-downs per market, each with its own language version, legal check and client sign-off. Agencies with a clear review process and one place where the latest files live spend less time chasing approvals across time zones.

How Fabric helps advertising agency teams

Fabric gives an agency one workspace for files, client feedback and team knowledge, with AI search across all of it. The agency setup suits the way regional advertising accounts run: one space per client, with briefs, scripts, decks, edits and call notes together, shared with teams in other markets.

Campaign production creates large files. Fabric's cloud drive streams them on demand, so they take no local disk space and heavy video files open without a full download. Search works by meaning across documents, images and recordings, and audio and video transcription makes spots, interviews and casting tapes searchable, with timestamps that jump to the right moment.

For client review, any file or folder can be published as a web page with password protection, and link analytics shows when each named recipient opened it and for how long, which helps when a round goes to marketing leads in several countries. Clients can leave threaded comments through a shared link without signing up. Annotations cover PDFs and documents such as scripts and legal copy; timestamped comments on video are coming soon.

On Team plans, self-writing docs keep a page for each client from meetings, Slack and the workspace, covering decisions, deliverables and open items, so staff joining an account in Miami or a regional office can catch up quickly.

Password protection and link analytics are included on Pro and Team plans, and self-writing docs on Team plans. See plans for teams.
