Publishing Group of America to Launch Relish Magazine

Posted on August 5, 2005

Publishing Group of America, the Franklin, TN-based magazine publisher of American Profile, has announced that it will launch a monthly food magazine in February 2006. The new magazine, called Relish, will be carried in daily newspapers giving it a circulation of 6 million according to Publishing Group of America (PGA). Relish will provide non-celebrity features on cooking, dining and entertaining as well as tips on cooking and kitchen products.

PGA offers the following description of Relish: "Relish is a monthly newspaper-distributed magazine that celebrates America's love of food. Relish brings readers authentic, accurate features on cooking, dining, and entertaining. Whether it's a formal dinner or a tailgate party, a hidden roadside restaurant or a family picnic, Relish is always lively, festive, and fun, and never sacrifice authority. Relish is a resource for useful cooking tips, delicious recipes, and new products for the kitchen."

"Relish is a breakthrough proposition," said Dick Porter, CEO of Publishing Group of America. "We can launch without the circulation and distribution costs that are crippling traditional magazines, and we can offer advertisers a new level of flexibility, targeting and accountability."

PGA focuses on distributing content via newspapers. After finding success with American Profile, PGA has expanded the franchise into a series of successful cookbooks, a syndicated content service and an events and promotion service. American Profile is distributed through more than 1,200 newspapers with a combined circulation in excess of 7 million. The company also publishes a series of cookbooks called Hometown Recipes and operates Hometown Content, a syndicated news service, and Hometown Promotions, an integrated marketing service. The company has offices in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit and Franklin, TN.
