Business Summary
Unico, Inc. is the holding company for The Independent News. The Independent News is a freely distributed, independently owned newspaper in Northern New Jersey. It has a circulation of approximately 110,000 and annual revenues of approximately $2,300,000. The newspaper is mailed directly to recipients, as opposed to simply being placed at various distribution points in restaurants and shopping centers. Unico, in conjunction with The Independent News, developed a Web-based advertising platform that placed certain parts of the Independent News and its news content, along with its advertisers' advertisements, on the Web. This enabled The Independent News to increase its advertisers' advertising rates and gross advertising revenues, because the advertisers now had additional exposure on the Web where local recipients of the newspaper could find out what products were being advertised.
