Increased Coverage For 'Machinery Movers' Magazine

Construction News Image

'Machinery Movers', the specialist dedicated magazine for the construction, quarry plant and equipment sector, has merged its separate UK and Ireland editions. Feedback received from readers and advertisers had indicated a preference for complete coverage of the UK and Irish markets in one comprehensive publication.

With a combined circulation of 15,000, the new joint 'Machinery Movers UK & Ireland' title will now provide construction & civil engineering contractors, plant hirers, quarries, demolition & recycling companies, as well as local authorities and utilities, with even more of the latest business and industry news, including up to the minute information from the major construction & quarry machinery manufacturers, dealers and distributors.

This move has been particularly welcomed by advertisers, who in today's challenging times are looking for ever more cost-effective ways of reaching key plant & equipment specifiers, buyers, hirers and users.

Publisher, Brian Coogan, said: "Now readers and advertisers only need one publication for coverage across the whole of Britain, together with both Northern and Southern Ireland.

"However, we will still be maintaining a clear editorial focus for the specific individual territories, through UK editor, James Laneand existing Ireland editor, Jim Breen."

"With the increased combined circulation of 15,000, I firmly expect to even further strengthen our leading position in the market. And our readers also still have the chance to win a superb Case CX16B mini excavator. Everyone taking out a new annual subscription for the magazine before the beginning of December 2008 will be entered into a free draw* to win the Case mini excavator", concluded Brian Coogan.

Copies of the first combined UK & Ireland September 2008 edition were distributed at the recent 'Machinery Movers' Equipment Demonstration Day, held at Brookfield, Enfield, County Meath, Ireland.
