Zofinger Tagblatt launches Luzerner Nachrichten as a header paper

The Zofinger Tagblatt (ZT) is making inroads into the canton of Lucerne as a partner of the Mittelland Zeitung. The Luzerner Nachrichten (LN) has been published as the front page since Monday. As ZT operations manager Bruno Lustenberger told SDA on request, the LN is printed in a run of around 1,300 copies. The first pages of the regional edition are devoted to reports from the Lucerne border region and the canton of Lucerne. According to Lustenberger, the seventh edition of the Mittelland Zeitung will also be published as a Sonntag LN. The total circulation of the ZT with the new front page is 15,300 copies. The jacket section is printed by AZ Print in Aarau. The regional bundle for the ZT and the LN will be produced in Zofingen.
