Nuffield Press
Nuffield Press is a former part of the UK's automotive manufacturer Nuffield Organisation / BMC, then effectively becoming part of British Leyland in 1968. At its peak the Nuffield Press used more than 1,000 tons of paper a year producing sales literature, owners manuals, technical manuals, magazines, diaries and posters. Originally it produced technical publications for BMC, and later the wider remit of British Leyland's entire product range, but also for external clients.
The Nuffield Press Limited was placed into Administration on 27 June 2011. The company had been founded in 1925 by William Morris, later Lord Nuffield, as The Morris Oxford Press, at the former military college in Cowley to produce the periodical Morris Owner. It was later bought by Robert Maxwell but sold in 2000 to a management buy out. At the time the company went into receivership around 67 people were employed and had a turnover of £6.7 million according to Print Week magazine.
