American Hometown Publishing expands to North Carolina, acquires Lake Norman Publications

"Lake Norman is surrounded by some of the fastest-growing communities in North Carolina," said Brad Dennison, CEO of AHP. "Residents there are passionate about where they live and we look forward to matching that passion in our news coverage and service to advertisers."

In addition to North Carolina, AHP owns and operates community newspapers, websites and magazines in Virginia, Tennessee, Florida and Oklahoma. AHP also operates its proprietary digital marketing services platform, Hometown Digital Solutions, which launched in 2016.

"AHP is a forward-thinking company with a clear commitment to journalism, community and employees," said Newsman CEO Craig Moon. "It's the ideal new home for our media group."

Lake Norman Publications is AHP's first acquisition since it was acquired by West End Holdings LLC in July 2017.
