EWN FACT SHEET

       DISTRIBUTION
  Euro Weekly News, the most successful
English language publication in Spain,
distributes 134,000 papers through more
than 4,000 distribution points in carefully
selected locations every week of the year.
  Come sun, rain, fiestas and holidays, the
EWN is the paper of choice among
the large number of the British and
English- speaking expats who call various
parts of Spain their home.
  It may not be space science, but
weaving such a truly successful and
effective distribution web across the entire
footprint area of the EWN six weekly
editions is constantly work in progress.
  But constant and ongoing fine tuning
ensures that everyone among the Engli-
sh-language reading public - from British
expats to the discerning Scandinavian
‘Snowbirds’ who call Spain their home,
and from Spanish nationals to Russian
expat residents - can easily find copies
each week.
  Statistics show that the EWN is the most
avidly read English-language publication
from Costa del Sol to the Costa Blanca
North, from Mallorca to Axarquia....and of
course additionally throughout Almeria
and the Costa Blanca South.
  This spells out that the readers are
clearly happy, and in turn this makes the
advertising clients happy, for they know
their advertisements are being seen by
the very people they want as customers.

            AWARDS
  There is no greater national publishing
recognition than to be named the Best
Free Newspaper in Spain 2017 at the
Premios AEEPP XI edition awards
ceremony in Madrid.
  This title is one of numerous awards
presented over the years that clearly show
that the EWN is not a newspaper brand
that blows hot and cold.

  Independent proof is clearly seen in the

      6* NEWSPAPER
  Consistently providing the most
effective and successful way for
advertising clients to get businesses and
products seen by the people they want to
reach, the EWN is the longest running
free English-language newspaper in
Europe.
  The 6* EWN print editions collectively
boast a weekly readership of more than
half a million, with six separate editions
available throughout Southern Spain and
Mallorca.
  With a total monthly circulation of more
than half a million, the EWN provides the
best and only truly comprehensive guide
to news, views, business, leisure, health,
beauty, dining, television, technology
and sport along with locally written
insights to life among the discerning
expatriate communities in Costa del Sol,
Costa Blanca North, Costa Blanca South,
Almeria, Axarquia and Mallorca.
  As a handy tabloid publication, the
EWN ensures that all advertisements
have a longer shelf-life than in daily
newspapers or those broadcast on local
radio and television.
  Bilingual sales staff in various regional
EWN offices fully understand the
marketing needs of Blue Chip internatio-
nal companies along with national
companies, established local firms, as
well as fledgling businesses.

       WINNING DUO
  Michel and Steven Euesden,             the
publishers of EWN, are no ordinary
couple.
  Spending 365 days a year together,
their determination and dynamic work
ethic is the base winning formula of their
EWN empire in southern Spain.
  They arrived in Spain in 1996 each with
impressive records in publishing sales, an
untiring hunger for work - and most
importantly, a vision for the future.
  "We never discussed that we would start
the EWN together, but we knew that
working together as a team would produce
the greatest product," says Michel.
  "The EWN success is down to our
attitude during the good times," says
Steven. "Others rested on their laurels,
but we continued to build relationships and
develop our team."
  They have in-built compassion for
anyone showing vulnerability, and a close
personal affinity with their loyal hard
working staff whom they view as "family,"
quietly drawing pleasure from professio-
nally and personally        supporting and
helping many worthy individuals and
charity causes.
  With a reputation for lending a helping
hand for those in need, the couple have
established the EWN as a newspaper
brand that gives back to the local
communities it serves.
