ANA celebrates 4th birthday marked by strong growth | IOL Business Report

The African News Agency was launched into the market as Africa's first news syndication service. A dream inspired by the notion of a news service by Africans, for Africans, as well as for the rest of the world. At ANA we have always believed that we, as Africans, should tell our own stories. The good and the bad, the despairing, as well as the uplifting, the failing, as well as the innovative.

ANA's Picture Wire boasts historical content dating back 75 years as well as contemporary editorial and stock photographs, videos, as well as graphics and contemporary political satire content. In late February 2015, Sapa announced that it would be closing its doors after almost 77 years. Its final story, at midnight on 31 March 2015, ended thus: "Goodbye Sapa. Thank you for the news."

But ANA was always geared to be more than a mere Sapa replacement. We recognised and seized the moment to tell Africa's stories. "We live in such an interconnected world today and it is only proper that Africa takes its rightful place among the family of nations as an equal, respected and valued member."
