About Ringier Africa

What We Do

Ringier Africa operates the leading classifieds and media groups in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Ringier entered the African market in 2011 with a clear focus on capitalizing on the massive digital potential of the market. Few years later, Ringier Africa is operating the leading classifieds and media groups on the continent - ROAM (Ringier One Africa Media) and RADP (Ringier Africa Digital Publishing). We have operations in Nigeria, Ghana, Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Ethiopia and our brands have achieved notable success and market leader positions in these markets.

Learn more about our two groups:

RADP is Africa's integrated media group. We combine leading proprietary and partner media assets with cutting-edge data insights and marketing and digital solutions to serve our users and advertisers optimally with news, entertainment, video, social engagement and immersive, 360 degree digital, creative and marketing experiences. Pan-African brands and licenses in the group include Pulse, Business Insider and Men's Health/Health. Additionally, a dedicated creative department with Ringier Digital Marketing (RDM - Digital) and Play Studio (Content) completes the support for clients to reach 100s of millions of users.

ROAM is Africa's marketplaces group. We bring together people on our platforms who are at crucial decision points in three of their most important events of their life.

Whether it is buying a car, buying a house, or finding your next job – our platforms empower each individual to find the best possible. Pan-African brands in the group include Jobberman, Brighter Monday and Cheki.

We plan on continuing our physical expansion into more Sub-Saharan nations within the next years and are already running projects across the continent. As in other markets, Ringier partners with some of the best people and companies in Africa for shared success. Besides our own love-brands, Pulse, Jobberman, Cheki, Private Property, RDM and more, we for example represent the international publishers Business Insider and Men's/Women's Health in Sub-Saharan African.
