Grand Vision Media Holdings operates predominantly in China and targets the growing middle classes with a range of advertising channels, in particular 3D screens in cinema foyers.

Today’s announcement signals further expansion of their screen network and lays the foundations for higher revenue in the future.

In addition to the 3D screens in Cinemas, Grand Vision Media acts as a media agency for domestic Chinese and overseas companies seeking to target Chinese consumers through digital channels.

The group provides agency services that can translate and prepare campaigns ready for distribution on Chinese platforms such as Weibo.

In the six months to 30th June 2018 Grand Vision Media revealed a 97% increase in revenue to HK$ 7.4m up from HK$ 3.8m in the same period a year prior.

With their full year ending 31st December 2018 investors will be awaiting full year results eagerly for any signs of increasing revenue growth.

Grand Vision Media entered the London Stock Exchange main market in 2018 and is pursuing a strategy of significant growth in mainland China.
