TC Transcontinental (TSX: TCL.A TCL.B) announced today that Metroland Media Group is outsourcing to TC Transcontinental the printing of all its newspapers currently taking place at its Tempo facility in Toronto. In addition to these two daily newspapers and 49 community publications, the deal extends the current printing agreement of two daily newspapers, including the Toronto Star, and four community publications, to the end of 2027.
The gradual transfer will occur over the next few months. TC Transcontinental will rely on its national integrated platform, mostly in its Vaughan, Ontario facility. This new business will require only minimal investment given TC Transcontinental Printing’s scale, highly efficient and flexible platform, and its skilled workforce.
“We are proud of Metroland’s confidence in us, expanding the solid relationship we have built over the years” said Peter Brues, President and Chief Executive Officer of TC Transcontinental “This agreement demonstrates the strength and benefit of our state-of-the-art printing platform for newspaper publishers.”
