Over the years, come rain or shine, the Famous Publishing distribution team has worked tirelessly to ensure that you get the latest from your favourite community magazines. Now the team has expanded and is proud to announce a rebranding of its KZN distribution staff. The staff will now be visible in their navy blue shirts and caps as well as name tags. This has been done to ensure that they are readily identifiable whilst bringing you your favourite community reads. According to KZN Distribution Manager, Mphumzeni Thusi, this will add a lot of value towards ensuring the peace of mind of the communities in which the magazines are distributed. “It will make us more visible as we go out to deliver the magazines,” said Thusi. “And it will help build on the sense of familiarity and friendship that we have built over the years with the communities where we work”.

Team names from left to right in pic above: Ndu, Mphumzeni (Distribution Manager), Scelo, Robyn (Operations Assistant), Rasta and Mbheki.
