Grow your business with Express FM
For nearly 20 years, Express FM has helped businesses, charities and organisations connect with local people across Portsmouth.
As the city's only radio station broadcasting from Portsmouth, for Portsmouth, we're passionate about championing local businesses and helping them reach customers through trusted local media.
Today, we're much more than a radio station.
Alongside our popular radio programming, we create integrated marketing campaigns that combine radio advertising, social media, video production, presenter-led content and digital promotion to help businesses grow.
Whether you're looking to raise awareness, drive footfall, recruit staff, launch a new product or promote an event, we'll build a campaign tailored to your goals and budget.
Why Choose Express FM?
People buy from businesses they know and trust.
Radio remains one of the UK's most trusted advertising platforms, and when combined with engaging digital content, it creates powerful campaigns that keep your business front of mind.
According to independent research from the University of Portsmouth, Express FM reaches more than 40,000 weekly listeners across Portsmouth on FM, DAB, smart-speakers and online while our growing social media channels generate hundreds of thousands of local video views and audience interactions.
Unlike national broadcasters, every campaign we create is built around Portsmouth.
That means your advertising reaches local people through genuinely local content, trusted presenters and a station that has been at the heart of the community since 2006.
