The Ozark Horse Trader began in 1977 as a source for local classifieds and business advertising. Over the years it has become the leading "shopper" newspaper in the area serving 17 counties in Southern Missouri and Northern Arkansas. Our readers and advertisers benefit from the 17,000 free copies we distribute in the 17 counties we serve each week. While readership is declining in newspapers we are still enjoying strong demand for our paper and we continue to deliver results for both our classified sellers and shoppers as well as our business advertisers. Readers that pick up the Horse Trader are looking to see what's for sale which makes us a great choice for anyone that wants to sell something as well as for businesses looking to gain new clients. We are committed to putting out the highest quality publication we can and we continue to strive for improvements every day. We know that our success is only as good as our advertisers.
