Crowned as the largest media business in Europe dedicated to serving millions of firearm owners, shooters, hunters, anglers and passionate outdoor enthusiasts, Time Well Spent Group has appointed InterMedia to manage its newsstand marketing and distribution services, effective from April 1 2025.

Championing Britain’s thriving fieldsports communities, TWS Group is uniquely positioned to reach niche audience groups across every demographic in outdoor pursuits, thanks to its wide variety of weekly publications. With popular titles including Airgun World, Sporting Gun, Trout & Salmon, Gun Mart and many more, all issues on sale from April 1 will be distributed by InterMedia. 

Simon K. Barr, CEO/Owner, Time Well Spent Group comments: 

“As the owner of Time Well Spent Group, I’ve dedicated years to shaping a media company that resonates deeply with ultra passionate niche communities, delivering iconic titles like Shooting Times and Trout & Salmon to readers who live and breathe for the pastimes we write about. Partnering with Intermedia for newsstand distribution is a logical and strong development for our business. Their sophisticated distribution strategies and focus on optimising reach align perfectly with our mission to elevate the specialist media we tirelessly produce. I’m thrilled to see our titles with them, reaching the right audiences with precision and impact.”

Group Managing Director of InterMedia, John Bardsley says: 

“We are thrilled to welcome the Time Well Spent brands to our growing portfolio, which hold market leading status in their respective sectors. We very much look forward to driving their retail newsstand sales and building on our existing partnership with TWS in respect of single issue and book distribution.” 

This collaboration strengthens the already thriving partnership between the two brands, with InterMedia’s sister company, InterSend, successfully managing TWS Group’s book distribution, alongside two of their magazines: Fieldsports Journal and Gundog Journal.

With a mission to drive innovation and lead the market for the benefit of both audiences and advertising partners, TWS Group remains committed to investing in its publications – an initiative that InterMedia is proud to support.
