Larche Communications

Larche Communications is a Canadian media company, which currently operates four radio stations in the province of Ontario. The company is named for its president, Paul Larche.

Based in Midland, the company began in 1997 when it acquired CICZ in Midland. Larche later expanded to Waterloo when it was licensed to open a new station, CIKZ. The company later entered an agreement with Rogers Media in 2007, selling CIKZ to that company in exchange for CICX in Orillia.

Larche's application for a new radio station in Sudbury was also approved by the CRTC on July 12, 2007. This station, CICS, officially launched on August 18, 2008. On May 9, 2008, the company was also given CRTC authorization to launch a rock-formatted station in Owen Sound on 92.3 FM.

On November 13, 2008, Larche applied for two new FM radio stations, a hot adult contemporary station in Orillia and a country music station to serve the Bracebridge/Gravenhurst area.
