New crackdown in Johannesburg hits FNB, Coca-Cola, Netflix, Absa, WeBuyCars, Checkers, Fanta, and RocoMamas

• The crackdown in Johannesburg targeted 8 companies with unauthorized outdoor advertising, including FNB, Coca-Cola, Netflix, and others.
• The city has been enforcing its Outdoor Advertising and Billboards by-laws for over a decade, classifying illegal outdoor advertising as a serious crime, and has collected R100 million in revenue from intensified enforcement last year.
• The Joburg Property Company will continue to enforce municipal regulations, encouraging businesses to obtain necessary approvals before erecting outdoor advertising structures, and warns that non-compliance can damage a brand's reputation.
