The Gleaner Company Media Limited (GCML) and the Jamaica Observer Limited (JOL) are joining forces to improve operational efficiency through a new joint venture to be finalised by the end of the year.
The agreement follows a memorandum of understanding signed in August to explore opportunities for outsourcing common functions such as printing and distribution.
After a successful feasibility study, both companies have agreed to establish a shared logistics model focused on print production and distribution.
According to the parties, the collaboration aims to achieve significant cost savings, improve delivery times and enhance service to readers and advertisers while preserving each company's independence and editorial integrity.
While the initiative represents a first-of-its-kind partnership in Jamaica's media landscape, both the Gleaner and the Observer emphasise that they will continue to operate as fully independent entities.
Each will retain separate ownership structures and maintain its editorial autonomy while pursuing operational synergies, production and delivery.
