APO Group’s position as the leading press release distribution service in Africa affords content partners like Zimpapers unparalleled access – for free – to a large, diverse feed of news in text, image, video and audio format. It is exactly the same feed of content provided by APO Group to international partners such as Bloomberg Terminal and Thomson Reuters Eikon.

“We are delighted to be working with APO Group to bring a rich feed of quality news content to people all over Zimbabwe,” said Zimpapers Group Chief Executive Officer, Pikirayi Deketeke. “By securing free, simultaneous publication of this news on all of our websites, we are ensuring we will be among the first media to break some of the biggest stories in African business, news and sport.”

“Partnerships like this one with Zimpapers are mutually beneficial for organizations issuing press release content and for the African media and their respective audiences,” said APO Group Founder and Chairman Nicolas Pompigne-Mognard.

“The richness and diversity of our African news content feed is unrivalled, while Zimpapers is the undisputed leader when it comes to media in Zimbabwe, so our partnership provides a unique opportunity to deliver quality news to the Zimbabwean people,” he said.
