Iiffe acquires Nuneaton group

By Press Gazette

Iliffe News and Media has acquired independent newspaper publishing company Nuneaton and District Newspapers Limited.

The company, which will become part of Staffordshire Newspapers, owned by Yattendon Investment Trust, publishes the daily Heartland Evening News in the Nuneaton, Bedworth, Atherstone and Hinckley areas.

Yattendon's group publishing director David Fordham said: "The relationship between Staffordshire Newspapers and Nuneaton and District Newspapers has been firmly established over a number of years through the provision of contract printing services from our Burton upon Trent facility.

"This is the third newspaper acquisition that we have completed within the past year and it dovetails neatly into our existing business. This further demonstrates our strategic commitment to grow our print and digital media interests."

The company's other recent acquisitions are Your Leek Paper and LSN Media.
