C & G Newspapers has helped businesses effectively deliver their marketing message for more than 40 years. Gil Demers and his wife Charlotte published the first Warren Weekly in 1980 and founded C & G Newspapers in 1981. Within a few years, they were joined in business by their five children: Karen, Jeff, Gregg, Keith and Suzanne. Today, C & G employs more than 75 people and publishes 19 local editions from Grosse Pointe to Novi, from Warren to Rochester and everywhere in between. C & G Newspapers are mailed bi-weekly to 567,464 homes, covering 47 communities and 67 zip codes. As daily newspapers have continued to decline in circulation and readership, C & G has continued to grow and now reaches nearly one million readers every other week. The Demers family and C & G Newspapers realize that without strong, successful communities, our business would not be successful. We publish and mail 19 local newspapers featuring relevant and engaging local content created by award winning editors and writers. Through our partnerships with local business owners we help build a strong business environment while strengthening communities and helping make them better places to live.
