Morocco Advertising Expenditure to grow 15% in 2010

08-06-2010 08:54 AM CET | Advertising, Media Consulting, Marketing Research

Press release from: Dataxis

Morocco Advertising Expenditure increased by nearly 20% in the first half of 2010, reaching MAD 2.5 billion (US$ 295 million) in June. The telecommunication sector, which traditionally accounts for 30% of ad spending, was one of the heaviest investors in the period, as Morocco’s third telecom operator Wana launched a new GSM offer under the name of Inwi.

Among all media, Television was the one that benefited most from the rebound in ad sales. TV channel 2M, which was established in 1989 by the largest Moroccan economic conglomerate ONA before being sold to the state 7 years later, saw its ad revenues jump 35% in H1. Al Aoula, owned by Morocco’s public broadcaster SNRT, enjoyed a 20% increase in advertising sales in the first semester. However, for the newspaper and magazine sector, ad expenditure stalled, as the industry faced an increasing competition from outdoor (30% in H1) and from radio (+9% in H1), the popularity of which has been growing greatly in recent months.

In 2009, the advertising market had registered a slow yet positive growth in revenues; ad spending went from a 25% increase in 2008 to a 5% growth last year. The slowdown was mainly caused by multinational companies cutting down their ad spending; the predominance of local advertisers in the media landscape has played a key role in cushioning the impact of the crisis on the Moroccan market.

Ad expenditure is expected to rise 15% in 2010. This trend should be confirmed next month, which corresponds to the holy month Ramadan, as ad spending tends to reach its highest levels during this period.
