What makes Andrew Bonamour a Global Shaker?

Andrew Bonamour heads up the Tiso Blackstar Group, the largest English publishing group and the second-largest digital publisher in South Africa. The media conglomerate looks after brands including the Sunday Times, Financial Mail, Sowetan, The Herald and record label Gallo, and owns the largest independent film and music catalogues in Africa.

Although Tiso Blackstar is set on becoming the largest news provider in Africa, reports in 2018 found the company’s share price had crashed by just under 50%, and new reports of financial troubles up to the first quarter of 2019 have led to job cuts to avoid title closures.
