Based in the Souss‑Massa region, it concentrates on Chtouka Ait Baha while following regional and national developments. The newsroom publishes breaking updates and reported features across municipal affairs, public services, justice and security, community initiatives, education, technology, sports and culture. Its video arm, CHP TV, extends coverage with on‑the‑ground reports, event highlights and interviews. The outlet reports an average of 40,000 page views per day and serves both local readers and Moroccans abroad through dedicated diaspora coverage. Editorial leadership includes General Manager Idriss Kouskar, Publishing Director Abdellatif Baraka, editor Amina Atzouk and technical lead Said Wakrim. Chtouka Press holds ISSN 2550‑6005 and operates under press file no. 2015/11. Coverage is rooted in the daily life of towns such as Biougra, Sidi Bibi and Aït Amira—transport works, public safety, civic meetings and social programs—while also tracking issues that shape the wider region, from the 70.3 Ironman in Agadir to cultural festivals and court rulings. Opinion columns and explainers add context to policy decisions. Publishing around the clock, Chtouka Press positions itself as a locally anchored, independent source that connects Chtouka Ait Baha to national conversations.
