Our Brand Story

An Inspired Beginning

City Lifestyle launched its first magazine in September 2009, at a time when many were facing uncertainty. Amid an economic downturn, we saw an opportunity to bring hope and inspiration to communities through uplifting, locally focused content. Our magazine quickly became more than just a publication — it became a source of joy and connection that people eagerly anticipated each month.

At the heart of our mission is inspiring pride in where people live. We connect residents with their surroundings, offering knowledge and opportunities to engage with their city's vibrant lifestyle. Our work is about building bridges — between people, businesses, and the places they call home — helping residents and local enterprises thrive by deepening their relationships.

To achieve this, we’ve developed a dynamic, multi-platform framework that blends beautiful design with compelling storytelling, highlighting the human stories and local culture that define each community. This flexible approach allows us to easily bring our model to new cities and replicate our success nationwide.

At City Lifestyle, we believe in the value of community — that home is far more than just buildings or streets. It’s about the people who live, work, create, and play together. By partnering with passionate locals, we can tap into each city's unseen power and beauty, helping residents uncover inspiration in their own backyards.

Our Growth Journey

Over the years, we’ve grown alongside the communities we serve. What began as a single magazine has blossomed into hundreds of local editions across the country, each reflecting the unique spirit of its home city. Our expansion continues month by month, driven by individuals as passionate about their communities as we are.
