International advertising awards for Independent Newspapers
The INMA World Congress honoured the Cape Argus as the leading newspaper with 6 awards, including one of the top three awards, 'Best in Graphic Design'.
John Lloyd, Commercial Director of Independent Newspapers Cape commented on the achievements and said, "It's extremely gratifying for our Cape titles to have excelled at the INMA Awards for 5 consecutive years."
Lloyd explained that nearly 1200 entries from 170 newspapers around the world were received for the 68th annual INMA Awards. The judging took place in Minneapolis, USA, in February, with awards being made in four circulation groups within 17 categories.
