Hanley Wood Shutters Big Builder and Building Products Magazine

Posted on October 20, 2011

BtoB Media Business reports that publisher Hanley Wood is ceasing publication of two magazines, Big Builder and Building Products. Big Builder was targeted at executives at building firms. Building Products was for high-volume builders and remodelers. The housing industry has been struggling since 2008. A Wall Street Journal story links the demise of Big Builder to the downturn in the housing market.

Hanley Wood will also stop developing its eBuild.com online directory, but will keep the site online. The company also eliminated five positions.
