Independent retailers welcome Scottish newspapers announcements

The NFRN has welcomed the decision by Scottish news publishers Aberdeen Journals and D C Thomson to include pro rata terms for newsagents as part of price increases for four of their titles.

From January 3, the Monday to Friday cover price of the Press and Journal will move to £1.50, while the Saturday edition will  go up to £1.70. The cover price of the Evening Express will also increase to £1.

At the same time, The Courier will increase in price from £1.30 to £1.40 for Monday to Friday editions, and from £1.60 to £1.70 on Saturdays, while the Evening Telegraph will go up from 80p to 90p.

All of these price increases will include pro rata profit margins for retailers.
