About the client

Stuff NZ are the leading news provider in New Zealand via their website stuff.co.nz

The solution

Stuff embarked on a large internal project during 2022 to create and launch regional masthead websites. 

These websites house both regional and national news content and are the digital equivalent to the local printed newspapers.

The first three to launch were The Press, The Waikato Times and The Post. 

These websites are based on an entirely new tech stack that was chosen to help future proof their digital publishing solution.
