Square One Publishing is on the shortlist for the Periodical Publishers Association (PPA) Independent Publishing Company of the Year at the Independent Publisher Awards 2006.

Square One made the list after another great year. There has been outstanding growth over the past 12 months. The diverse yet balanced client portfolio takes in market sectors as diverse as government, financial services and retail. Innovation has also been at the forefront of Square One’s achievements this year, notably in its success in taking slimming magazine LighterLife to the newsstands.

The awards are held by the PPA’s Independent Publishers Advisory Council (IPAC) and are a unique chance for independent publishers around the country to receive recognition from their peers for their achievements.

Square One commercial director Sean King said: “We take great pride in being an independent publishing agency and are delighted to have been recognised as one of the country’s most progressive publishers in this field, especially as we operate in a growing market characterised by intense and high-quality competition. That always raises the bar.”

The PPA is the organisation for magazine and professional media publishers in the UK. Its role is to promote and protect the interests of the industry in general, and of member companies in particular.
