“The magazine category appears relatively flat; however, magazines like the Jet Club (custom category) and significant players still need to be declared, and publications still in circulation affect quarterly reporting. We will have kept the Q3 and Q2 2022 distribution reasonably stable if we compare estimated circulation, including those numbers,” the statement said.
The ABC said 3.3 million magazines were consumed in quarter three.
"Thus, although media distribution in print looks to follow a slow downward trend, publishers maintain their creativity to stay in business which is vastly important and can be commended," said the ABC.
Like in previous quarters consumer magazines continued to have reporting changes and changed sectors.
Plus 50, Baba & Kleuter, Compleat Golfer, Marktoe! and The Gardener all had double digit uptakes for the third quarter.
Women’s magazines: Sarie, Glamour and Women and Home showed steady growth with single digit uptakes for quarterly and y-o-y readership.
Marktoe! continues to bring home the bacon with double digit increases across the board once again.
Your Pregnancy and Baby, Rooi Rose Magazine and Women's Health are new members in the sector.
