William Reed Business Media Ltd has been providing market leading business information for 150 years. Since 1862, when the first issue of The Grocer magazine rolled off the printing presses, ours has been the authoritative voice of the UK grocery industry. The markets we serve are central to everyone’s life. They include food and drink, where our activities extend across manufacturing, retail, wholesale and hospitality, and, more recently, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Today, with the fifth generation of the Reed family running the company, we have an expanding portfolio of websites, newsletters, magazines, face-to-face and virtual events, exhibitions, conferences, data services and directories, across an international footprint. The Group has moved with the times and invested significantly in developing and improving brands and products. A number of successful strategic acquisitions throughout William Reed’s history have also boosted growth.
