About Us
Welcome to the world of Expat Living!
Our readers use our editorial articles – be they reviews, interviews, expert opinions or comments – as reference sources when choosing products and services. The print copies are collected and used for years. Our digital version is an instant source of information via mobile phone, table or desktop. Our print magazine is bi-monthly and available at all major bookstores, supermarkets and newsstands. Browsing copies of our publication can also be found at clubs and associations, hotels and serviced apartments, moving and relocation companies, cafés and restaurants, airline lounges, international schools and the waiting lounges at many spas, beauty salons, medical and dental clinics, and hospitals. Expat Living has a current print run in Hong Kong of 15,000 copies per issue. We also help you reach your target market through our digital platforms such as e-newsletters, direct mailers or display advertising and advertorials on www.expatliving.hk. Through whichever media you choose (and we can help you decide) we can build a marketing package to ensure you reach the right target market and maximise your ad spend.
By incorporating various editorial themes and content options, we give you multiple exposure opportunities. This includes allowing your customers to give their personal endorsements of your product or service. We target newcomers who spend a large portion of their income setting up home here, especially in the first two years of their stay. We are also a favourite with long-term residents who are constantly on the lookout for recommendations in other areas such as travel destinations, wine and dine outlets, education, entertainment, and beauty and health care. Set up by a team who understand the needs of people who are away from home and their need for recommendations from peers, Expat Living has become a ‘bible’ to many. It’s the only referral guide that takes the readers into their peers’ homes, letting others share their experiences, preferences and retail choices.

What Our Readers Say...
NATASHA BUTTERWORTH
PENELOPE ORPHANOUDAKI
What a fantastic magazine! You can tell that a lot of effort has been put into the quality of the content. The fact that my husband commented on the travel articles really amazed me, as he’s not a big reader. I look forward to the next issue!
Having being in Asia for the last three years, I find Expat Living a magazine that has a wide audience, often being read and referred to by locals, in addition to specifically expat groups.

I just finished reading my copy of August/September and it gets better and better. Love the home articles, but your personalisation is what makes them so readable. Also love the where to go, where to eat, what’s on.... Expat Living has become my HK bible.
The magazine looks fantastic and has really established itself as a brand in the marketplace. Terrific job with distribution as I see it everywhere.

Big congratulations to everyone involved with its production – it looks sensational! I literally could not put it down after I opened it. I showed Expat Living to friends and several have stated that they would like to subscribe. I also talked a couple of husbands into subscribing for their wives as a surprise gift!
Love your glossy magazine! I have already shared it with four people who all want to subscribe.
