History and profile

[edit]

Helsingør Dagblad was established by Henrik Donatzky, a publisher, in 1867.[1] The paper is part of North Media[2] and is published by Søndagsavisen A/S which is also the publisher of Søndagsavisen.[3] It was formerly published by the Helsingør Dagblad A/S Group.[4] Søndagsavisen A/S had a stake in the company until 2009 when it purchased the company from Dansk AvisTryk A/S.[5] The paper is published in North Zealand.[4]

In 2013 Helsingør Dagblad and Swedish local paper Helsingborgs Dagblad initiated a cooperation to share their sources, but the project was ended soon due to the financial problems.[6] In March 2017 Dorthe Carlsen was appointed director of the paper, replacing Svein Gilbu in the post.[7]
