Three South African papers hit Zimbabwe newsstands

A newspaper marketing company in Zimbabwe has begun selling titles from South Africa's Independent News & Media (INMSA), just over a month after the Sowetan hit the country's newsstands but was quickly withdrawn.
These new titles appearing on Zimbabwe newsstands are The Saturday Star, The Sunday Independent and Wednesday's edition of The Star. They are distributed by Munn Marketing, the same company bringing the existing foreign titles into the country.
However, the newspapers have experienced a one-day delivery delay into Harare, the capital, and The Sunday Independent was selling in the market on Monday, a day after it came out in South Africa.
Vendors said this did not affected sales in any way, as demand looked strong. However, it was unclear if this was caused by curiosity over an unknown publication or due to a dearth of newspapers in the country, bizcommunity.com reported.
