ADVERTISING AND TRADE PROMOTION - NEWSPAPERS

Television and newspaper advertising are the promotion tools of choice for the majority of distributors of U.S. products.
Panama has a very competitive advertising market, with standard prices and very good production quality. Additionally, trade show and exhibitions have proven to be effective tools for trade promotion.
Special sale prices are usually advertised in newspapers during weekends. Most foreign manufacturers of consumer products also keep a high profile presence in the country through large billboards, sponsored sports events and T.V. advertising.
Radio advertising is mainly utilized outside of Metropolitan Panama City.
