A new report by the Outdoor Media Association claims the out of home (OOH) industry has experienced a 20% increase in net revenue year-to-date, compared to the same period in 2009.

The research was conducted after the third quarter, and also showed net revenue for this July to September segment increased 30% to $111.4 million, compared to $85.8 million in 2009.

Joana Barros of OOH advertising company Adshel says she has definitely noticed an increase in business.

Q3 has seen record breaking growth levels in both revenue and brand count for Adshel, she tells Marketingmagazine.com.au, as outdoor recovers from the downturn faster than most other media.
