Why advertisers should be advertising in the Eastern Cape

“The Eastern Cape is the next frontier for brand loyalty and growth. The opportunity to establish brand loyalty and gain market share is ripe for companies willing to exit the rut of complacency. For example, why doesn’t Colgate advertise in Port Elizabeth when there are 1.2 million people who brush their teeth twice a day every day? The same can be said for many other consumer products and services that dedicate a disproportional advertising spend to the larger cities without taking cognisance of the large untapped consumers of the Eastern Cape,” says Bruce Jefferies.
