Why The Reporter Matters in Ethiopia

For international brands, an English-language title matters in Ethiopia because it connects directly with business, policy and professional readers in the capital, including those working with foreign institutions and investors.
What the Published Data Says About the Audience

A Media Planner's View: Where to Place
Use The Reporter for brand, corporate and institutional messages aimed at English-reading professionals in Addis Ababa. A weekly title rewards strong creative and a clear, single message in print.
For investor and premium messages, we would combine print display with the website, and use the Amharic edition when the campaign needs to speak to a broader local audience as well.
