Local World Holdings Ltd. was a large regional newspaper publisher in the UK that published around 100 print titles and more than 70 websites. It was formed in 2012 by David Montgomery, a former chief executive of Trinity Mirror, to buy the Daily Mail and General Trust's Northcliffe Media business, and the Yattendon Group's Iliffe newspaper group.[1]
In October 2015 Trinity Mirror, now Reach plc, bought the company.[2] The sale was completed on 13 November 2015.[3] In April 2017 the Local World website started redirecting to the Trinity Mirror website.[4]
