Johannesburg
Johannesburg, the capital of South Africa’s smallest and wealthiest province, Gauteng, is a lively mix of energy and diversity. Affectionately called Jozi or Jo’burg by locals, Johannesburg is known as the country’s economic and information technology hub, generating up to 16 percent of South Africa’s gross domestic product and employing 12 percent of the national workforce. Ever since gold was discovered in 1886, the city has continued to grow, and today the modern African city is the largest commercial center on the continent. Our office opened its doors in 1994 and is situated in the northern suburb of Rivonia. With more than 10 consultants whose backgrounds range from journalism to specialist communications, Text 100 Johannesburg has a reputation for delivering on-message, strategic and results-driven public relations counsel for both its South African and multinational clients.
