Newspapers, radio, and television are the main advertising media used for trade promotion.  Television reaches a limited portion of Nepali consumers – primarily the more affluent urban population – but newspapers and radio reach most parts of the country.  The best choice for advertising media will thus depend on the target group.  TV advertising is the most appropriate means to reach the urban middle and upper classes.  For basic consumer products, advertising in newspapers and via radio is more appropriate.  Advertising costs are lower for newspapers and radio than for television.  Since the size of the market is so small, there are no BSP (Business Service Provider), FUSE (Featured U.S. Exporters), or SCP (Single Company Promotion) services available in Nepal.  Names and addresses of major newspapers, radio and television stations, and cable television companies are set out below.  Inclusion in this list does not constitute U.S. Government endorsement.
