AU FAIT IS THE FIRST FREE DAILY IN MAROCCO

 














      au fait is the first free daily to be launched in Morocco, which already has several free weeklies. With a circulation of 10,000 copies, this newspaper is distributed from Monday to Friday by a team of fourteen peddlers in Casablanca and three in Rabat since 1 March 2007, it will soon be available in Marrakech. « You can also find it in chic cafes such as Frères Gourmets, Paul ... and we are very proud to be on board of some Royal Air Maroc flights », said Réda Sedrati, 26, publishing director.

    Launched by Devocean, a web service company created in Canada, the French-language au fait, which is targets readers in the range from 25 to 40 years, claims to be a civic newspaper. Among recent page one stories published by this 16-page full color tabloid : domestic exploitation of little girls headlined « that's enough!», «rain at last» or the «intertnational festival of magic arts in Marrakesh».

    It will not come as a surprise if other free dailies, Arabic or French speaking, appear soon in Morocco.
