Find Advertising, Marketing and PR expertise in Mozambique

Advertising, marketing and PR is a developing industry with an annual turnover of US$120 million in the advertising sector alone. In May 2012 the AMEP (Mozambique Association of Advertising Agencies) hosted the International Advertising Festival in the capital Maputo. It celebrated the creative work of advertisers around the world with a particular focus on Africa.

The media reforms of the 1990s resulted in a sudden growth in the advertising industry and a shift away from the public advertising body Intermark.

Whilst work tends to be done in-house, some specialised firms do exist and two subsidiaries of the global firm WPP are operational in Maptuo. In addition, the Sub-Saharan outdoor advertising firm Alliance Media also has offices in the country.

The principal industry bodies are AMEP (the Mozambique Association of Advertising Agencies) and the Advertising Confederation of Portuguese Language Countries (CPPLP).
