Morris Media Network acquires Carolina Parenting, Inc.

Morris Media Network has acquired Carolina Parenting, Inc., a publishing company based in Charlotte, N.C., that produces monthly and annual regional publications and digital media for parents and others caring for children. 

Carolina Parenting produces three monthly magazines, Charlotte Parent, Carolina (Triangle) Parent and Piedmont Parent. Annual publications produced in each area consist of "Baby & Toddler," "Education Guide," "Exceptional Child" and "GPS" (Go Play See). GPS contains information about schools, hospitals, doctors, family attractions, transportation and community resources for residents and new families. The guide is also distributed through selected real estate brokers to families moving into the areas. 

Karen Rodriguez, Morris Media Network regional vice president, stated: "The monthly Parent Magazines, the annuals and the digital products all fit perfectly in rounding out our Charlotte portfolio, strengthens our core city magazine position, and will serve to open the door to expand into the travel space in the Triangle and the Triad. I am very excited about the opportunities this presents to MMN and look forward to the expansion."
