Publication History of  Bloem News

 

In 2014 The new Bloem News and Bloem Weekend will combine the best qualities of the two existing publications, Ons Stad and Bloem News.  There was an unnecessary duplication and overlap between the two newspapers, which were delivered to the same households and distribution points weekly in the past years. The newspaper has been re-designed and will have a brand new, modern look.
