Local news publisher Archant has offloaded several specialist brands to Kelsey Media ahead of an expected sale by its private equity owner.
The Norfolk-based publisher has sold the magazines Agricultural Trader, Country Smallholding, Canal Boat, The Tillergraph and Pilot, plus general aviation website UKGA, leaving the group with fewer than ten specialist magazines.
Kelsey Media has bought the likes of World Soccer and Amateur Photographer from Future and gadget magazine Stuff from Haymarket in recent years. It closed around ten magazines towards the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.
It comes amid reports that private equity firm Rcapital has put Archant up for sale after 18 months of ownership.
