Zululand Fever

The Zululand Fever is the second biggest title in the Fever Publications stable, a subsidiary of The Witness Group. Currently 40 000 copies of the free weekly community newspaper are distributed every Thursday, delivering local news and sport to residents of the Zululand region. The Zululand Fever is a family and community-orientated paper that has a reputation for being the genuine 'voice of the community'. It offers news in English, Afrikaans and Zulu.

A new distribution strategy has recently been formulated to make sure the paper gets into the hands of our advertisers’ target market in Richards Bay, Empangeni, Eshowe, Mthubathuba, Mtuzini and surrounding areas. The Zululand Fever is known to have the highest number of individually delivered papers in our footprint – more than any other paper in our area.
