Quebecor World Closes Magog; Signs Contracts

Other pacts include a multi-year renewal agreement with Affinity Group to print all of the publisher’s 30 magazine titles. Quebecor World also reached a multi-year deal to print two weekly magazines for Amos Publishing of Sidney, OH—Coin World and Linn’s Stamp News.

However, its own parent, Quebecor Inc., may switch to another printer to handle some of its magazine titles. Publications TVA, Quebec’s largest consumer magazine publisher, is considering entering into printing agreements with rivals of Quebecor World for a handful of publications, says a Quebecor spokesman. The spokesman cited “practical and logistical reasons” being mulled. No decision has been made, and the vast majority of TVA publications will continue to be printed by Quebecor World.
