Namibian Sun to cost N$1 more Namibian Sun would like to inform its esteemed readers and advertisers that the newspaper cover price will increase by N$1 to N$4 on 3 January 2017.The increase was necessitated by a number of factors, including high distribution and production costs.
We understand the tough economic times that everyone is experiencing, but rest assured that Namibian Sun is committed to achieving excellence in journalism and will continue to “tell it all”. The increase will also allow us to pay our street vendors, who are vital to our street sales distribution strategy, 25% more than our competitors do. It will allow us to continue distributing our newspaper to all current destinations, while six new points of delivery will be added soon.

In addition to the price increase, our readers will also be able to access the full edition of Namibian Sun online.
