It's curious, however, that best business practice is so often adopted by South African creatives - why do we not adopt internationally recognised design principles, given that we follow textbook guidelines for radio, print and TV? The tried-and-tested formulae of OOH, the world's oldest broadcast media, are just not widely adopted and applied. 26 Jul 2017 Read more Leading out-of-home company Provantage Media Group is proud to announce that they have just been awarded a Level 1 B-BBEE rating by Grant Thornton - the highest BEE rating achievable.
