History
The company, originally established as "WHSmith News", was renamed Smiths News PLC on its demerger from WHSmith on 1 September 2006.[1]
In April 2014, the company rebranded as Connect Group PLC to reflect the diversity of the company's markets.[2]
The company purchased Tuffnells Parcels Express for more than £100m in November 2014[3] but, after several years of poor performance under the group's stewardship, sold it for £15m in April 2020.[4]
In October 2020 Connect Group PLC changed its name back to Smiths News PLC.[5]
