MetropolitanRepublic, open since 2007, employs more than 150 staff across offices in Johannesburg (its headquarters), Zambia, Swaziland, Rwanda and Uganda. It is a problem-solving, integrated communications agency employing a diverse group of people to come up with ideas, rather than ads, to provide solutions for its clients and enhance their bottom lines. For MetropolitanRepublic, the problem is always at the centre and we look at how we can create an idea to solve that problem.
