In the article UK Tabloids Hot Off The Local Press, which appeared on Monday announcing that the Daily Express will be printed in Malta, it was reported that the move was the result of the fact that it is cheaper to print the newspapers in Malta than importing them. In fact, it is not the case. The decision to print the newspapers in Malta was motivated by the fact that, in such a way, the distributers will be able to deliver the newspapers earlier and, therefore, potentially increase sales and improve service. Consumers have a whole day to buy the paper rather than between 6 and 7 p.m., which was the case when the newspapers were available on the news stands previously, having to be flown to Malta from the UK.
