Industrial Distribution Ceases; Keogh Not Retiring

The parent company of Industrial Distribution has ceased publication of both the print magazine and online edition.

Founded in 1911, the trade magazine recently claimed twice the advertising pages of any publication in industrial distribution and a readership of 30,000 company owners, managers and sales personnel.

The Waltham, MA-based magazine was led by editor Jack Keogh for 25 years.

“It’s been a shock to all of us here,” Keogh told GlobalFastenerNews.com.

He will be leaving Reed Business Information – U.S. to set up a company dealing with distribution. ”I just love this business too much to leave.”  E-mail: john.keough@comcast.net

The U.S. Reed business is part of EU publisher Reed Elsevier plc. ©2010 GlobalFastenerNews.com
