Celebrating 30 Years of Business

Established in 1994, Commerce & Industry Magazine is proud to be celebrating 30 years as the leading journal for business to business marketing across the Humber region.

Founded by Waltons Publications, the magazine provides a platform for local businesses to advertise products and services, and share corporate developments, skills, success stories, and achievements with executives and potential clients.

Since inception, it has evolved into a fullcolour, high-quality glossy publication, recognised as Yorkshire and Lincolnshire’s premier business-to-business magazine.

Commerce & Industry began as a broadsheet and transformed into today’s A4 glossy format. The content supports a diverse range of Humber region businesses, including major entities like Associated British Ports (ABP) and the University of Hull.

Since establishment, the magazine has showcased news from local entities like Future Humber (supported by Bondholders) and the Hull & Humber Chamber of Commerce. Collaborations include the Lincolnshire Chamber of Commerce, Federation of Small Businesses (FSB), Humber LEP, Team Humber Marine Alliance, and Department of International Trade, enhancing coverage of local business successes.

For 30 years, the publication has evolved, embracing the digital era with online and print availability. Social media presence, notably LinkedIn, engages Yorkshire and Lincolnshire professionals with industry insights, articles, and updates.

Website updates at www.commerceindustry.co.uk inform readers on regional business news, investments, acquisitions, mergers, economic growth, and corporate developments.

Commerce & Industry Magazine remains dedicated to connecting advertisers with potential clients, fostering business relationships, and delivering editorial features, company news, and reports on regional economic developments.
