The paper is owned by the Condliffe family, following a management buyout led by former editor John Condliffe in 1988. His son Jeremy is the current editor – only the fourth since the paper was founded – who created the second father to son succession (after Robert Head to his son Lionel).[citation needed]
In addition to the Congleton Chronicle, the company also publishes the Sandbach Chronicle, the Biddulph Chronicle and, launched in January 2012, the Alsager Chronicle. The newspapers have a combined circulation of 15,842, and are read by approximately 42,000 people.[1]
