NEWSQUEST

With 300 titles to its name, 'Newsquest' is the second largest publisher of regional and local newspapers in the United Kingdom. Newsquest is based in Weybridge, Surrey and employs a total of more than 9,100 people across the UK.
Newsquest was formed in 1995 from a management buyout of Reed Regional Newspapers. The company expanded its portfolio with acquisitions from Johnston Press and acquiring Westminster Press from Pearson PLC in December 1996 for £298 million. The company was floated in October 1997 with a market capitalisation of £500 million.
In 1999, Newsquest was acquired by the North American Gannett corporation.
In September 2005, it bought ''Exchange & Mart'' and ''Auto Exchange'' from United Advertising Publications, after UAP merged with sister company CMPi in a restructuring of US parent UBM ^[1]
