In an era where the print industry has faced unprecedented challenges, with many outlets struggling to maintain readership and facing closure, GLAMOUR has bucked the trend. According to the Audit Bureau of Circulations (ABC) of South Africa's Q4 2024 Consumer Magazines report published in Biz Community , GLAMOUR has achieved a remarkable 48.7% increase in readership compared to the prior year, making it the only publication to show growth.
This impressive feat is a testament to the magazine's commitment to publishing content that resonates with its audience. GLAMOUR's Editor-in-Chief Nontando Mposo expressed her gratitude to readers, saying, "This is incredibly encouraging news in the current landscape of print magazines. We are immensely grateful to our readers for their unwavering support—it fuels our hope for the future."
The Editor-in-Chief also congratulated the GLAMOUR team, acknowledging their tireless efforts to produce a magazine that tells authentic African stories. "Congratulations to the entire GLAMOUR team for their exceptional work and contributions. We're excited to share our plans for 2025, which include beautifully curated editions, captivating print and online content, and glamorous events that celebrate our community."
GLAMOUR's success is not only a reflection of its own efforts but also a testament to the loyalty of its readers and the support of its brand partners. As we celebrate this achievement, we extend our gratitude to our readers, who have consistently supported us by purchasing our magazines and attending our events, such as Galentine's, Women of the Year, Wellness Events, Mother's Day celebrations, and our Book Club.
We also appreciate the unwavering loyalty of our brand partners and sponsors, who share our values and commitment to women's empowerment. Together, we have produced magazines that break the mold, push boundaries, and spark conversations around thought-provoking topics.
As we look back on our 2024 print issues, we're proud of the incredible content we've created:
