Reach is a publicly owned company headquartered in the UK. Founded in 1832, it employs approximately 2,180 people and reported $683.8M in revenue as of 2025. It operates as a tier 2 media tech buyer. The company's main product involves ad measurement and verification, functioning as a newspaper publisher with a portfolio that includes five national newspapers.
On September 9, 2026, ABC figures revealed that print circulation for 17 of Reach's daily titles declined by at least 20% during the first half of the year. Previously, on September 7, the publisher created three new regional political correspondent roles for Yorkshire, Newcastle, and the South West, following its establishment of four regional business editor positions. Also on September 7, Reach launched registration pages for community brands Southport Visiter and The Journal as new paid offerings, providing readers with hyperlocal newsletters. This initiative followed the company's unveiling of new online homes and dedicated landing pages for The Journal and The Southport Visiter on September 4, fulfilling a pledge to restore online presences for these historic titles whose websites were previously closed. Earlier, on August 28, The Mirror announced it would open a new "Mirror North" base in Reach's Manchester hub, coinciding with the editor of the Liverpool Echo stepping into a new national role.
