Most of the group’s revenue is currently derived from its over 2,000 domestic static media billboards and signage, with digital media billboards still under 2% of total sales.

Business Description

MACO produces and provides outdoor advertising media services throughout Thailand, and has a 35% share of the local market. Just under 2/3 of its revenue is derived from billboards, while a little over a third is from street furniture such as pillars and posts.

Billboards includes customized media content specifically designed for out of home purposes. Out-of-home advertising has been the fastest growing media in Thailand over the past five years due to long consumer commutes and the amount of time consumers spend out of home.
