Local World Ltd. is a large regional newspaper publisher in the UK that publishes around 100 print titles and more than 70 websites. It was formed in 2012 by David Montgomery, a former chief executive of Trinity Mirror, to buy the Daily Mail and General Trust's Northcliffe Media business, and the Yattendon Group's Iliffe newspaper group.
In October 2015, Trinity Mirror reached agreement with Local World's other shareholders to buy the company.
Local World was established in 2012 by David Montgomery, in order to purchase local newspaper businesses.

The purchase of the businesses was approved by the Office of Fair Trading on 28 June 2013.
