His expertise and passion for the industry will be invaluable as we continue to drive innovation and unlock new opportunities for OOH across LATAM.”

As programmatic adoption accelerates, Vistar Media continues to invest in local expertise and partnerships to drive scalability in OOH. The Latin America OOH and DOOH market is projected to grow from USD $1.00 billion in 2025 to USD 1.33 billion by 2030, underscoring the region’s immense potential for digital media growth. With Mendez at the helm of supply partnerships, media owners can leverage Vistar’s industry-leading technology to optimize inventory management and maximize revenue opportunities.

“I couldn’t be more excited to join Vistar Media at such a transformative time for advertising in Latin America,” said Marcos Mendez, Director of Supply Partnerships, LATAM at Vistar. “Vistar has built a powerhouse of innovation in the global OOH industry, and I’m eager to bring that expertise to LATAM, strengthening supply partnerships and driving the next wave of growth in the region.”
