POLESTAR RETAINS TWO GUARDIAN TITLES

Polestar has renewed its contract to print two weekly supplements for Guardian News & Media, but will lose two others because the publisher is going to print them in-house

The print group has renewed its contract to print Weekend for the Saturday Guardian, which has a print run of around 450,000, and Observer Magazine for the Observer with a circa 330,000 run.

Both are printed gravure and saddle-stitched at Polestar Sheffield.

However, two other titles currently printed by Polestar, the small-format The Guide weekly listings supplement for the Saturday Guardian, and the Observer Food Monthly magazine, will be printed by the Guardian’s own print operation from the beginning of July after the current contract expires.
