"With so much happening in Durban on the business front, we felt a need to establish a more regular presence," said the magazine's print editor, David Wightman.

"Our readers are at the top end of the market - MDs, GMs, professional people, business owners and so on - but the appetite for local business news is such that we realised we had to spread our wings, reach a wider audience and reach them more often."

Print edition available digitally

Business in Durban magazine is now in its third year. The print edition is available digitally and can be read free of charge online at www.mysubs.co.za. It is also available for download on laptops, tablets and Smartphones (although if you are using an iPad, it is recommended that the appropriate app be downloaded, available in the app store).

The new website offers readers an additional update of features and news, videos and pictures, to augment the business news and information.

"I am really enjoying the website," said Siphesihle Mtembu. "There is plenty of interaction with readers and business people and a number of businesses are sending me information, new appointments, corporate social activity, pictures from events they hold, and so on. There is no doubt Durban is taking off as an investment destination."
