How Billboard Works
Billboard advertising costs aren’t one-size-fits-all — several factors determine what you’ll pay:
- Location and traffic volume. Prime corridors like Thika Road, Mombasa Road, and Uhuru Highway command higher rates because of daily traffic counts and dwell time (e.g., traffic lights, roundabouts where vehicles slow down).
- Format. Static billboards are the most affordable entry point. Digital/LED billboards cost more because they rotate multiple ads and require higher production and maintenance investment — but they also let you split costs by sharing screen time with other advertisers.
- Size. Larger formats (48-sheet, unipoles, gantries) cost more than smaller street pole ads but deliver far greater visual impact from a distance.
- Duration. Most bookings run in monthly cycles, with better rates typically available for 3-, 6-, or 12-month commitments compared to single-month bookings.
- Production and installation. Design, printing, and mounting are usually quoted separately from the site rental fee — ask for an all-in quote to avoid surprises.
Our Billboard Booking Process
- Survey & Site Selection — We assess your target audience, budget, and campaign goals to recommend sites with the right traffic profile and visibility.
- Design — Our in-house creative team develops billboard artwork optimized for quick readability at speed and distance, including 3D visual options where relevant.
- Printing — High-resolution, weather-resistant printing sized precisely to your chosen billboard format.
- Installation — Our own crews handle mounting and installation — since we own our billboard and street pole infrastructure, there’s no third-party broker delay.
- Reporting — We confirm installation with site photos/proof of posting, and provide ongoing condition checks for the duration of your booking.
Check Zoning and Permit Compliance
Not every high-traffic spot is legally available for advertising. Nairobi County regulates where and how billboards can be installed under the Nairobi City County Outdoor Advertising and Signage Control and Regulation Act, 2018. Before committing to a site, confirm it’s licensed and compliant — we handle this vetting as part of our site-selection process.
