Smart Mission:MAGAZINE

Value/ Art/ Ideas/ Goodliving


Smart Choice Magazine started its magical journey in the year 2012 through an initiative by a group of directors who have accumulated vast

experience in the corporate marketing world across the East African Region spanning a total of more than 20 years. Published in an A5 Format for two years, we are now proud to present to you our new B5 magazine as from June 2016, complimented by an updated website and backed by social media on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn.

On realization of the need for a holistic, practical and human faced platform - custom made to embrace the unfulfilled needs of the corporate clientele - the Smart Choice Magazine was conceived to address the traditional advertising wastage by focusing on a

select target audience that would give our advertisers tangible value for their money while giving consumers much needed relief by addressing their buying needs directly.

On inception, our highly dedicated team first swung into action to secure contracts with many stake holders in a bid to establish an impeccable distribution network throughout the region.

Smart Choice Magazine is an up-market publication catering for the middle to upper classes in Kenya and the expatriate community and is distributed through a select network that ensures that you have proper visibility to the people who have spending and buying power. Almost 30% of our readership is comprised of

investors with a keen interest on investing in viable and lucrative businesses in Kenya and the region.

Smart Choice Magazine is distributed through selected Nakumatt and Tuskys Supermarkets in Kenya, all major shopping malls and arcades and has a visible presence in Nairobi, Mombasa, Diani, Malindi, Vipingo, Nakuru and Naivasha among many other outlets and office buildings.

Besides the physical distribution points, we also have a team of highly motivated foot soldiers who swing into action whenever we have product activations for our clients and especially when launching new products into the market. Our foot soldiers distribute our magazines at selected major


roads, junctions, roundabouts and client outlets. They also talk to our readers about specific advertisements found in the publication that piques their interests.

To add to our strength in distribution, we also have existing contracts with Kenya’s leading retail giants that allow us to install our branded distribution and pick up racks in all their branches from where our readers are free to pick a copy of Smart Choice Magazine at zero cost since the magazine is a free copy and not for sale.

Every edition of Smart Choice Magazine, with a monthly print run of 30,000 copies circulated on the 1st day of every month, and an active shelf life of 30 calendar days, is a treasured gem safely kept by our readers for future reference and as reading materials in their offices, receptions and homes long after the active shelf life of the magazine. Your inclusion in the magazine therefore gives you added value within and beyond the period of active coverage.

We have a demographically estimated readership of about 120,000 people per edition per month. In addition to this, there is an estimated 40% more readership online at www.smartchoice.co.ke from more than 10,000 hits per month

In our short term goals, Smart Choice Magazine plans to launch: The Smart Choice Expo and an online platform that is meant to complement our offline platform.
