75Media, which was reported to be one of the UK’s largest outdoor advertising companies, has entered liquidation and will cease trading
75Media, an out-of-home (OOH) media company which just recently claimed to be the number two market leader for wide-format roadside billboard sites in the UK, has entered liquidation and will cease trading.
The company, which had its headquarters in Leeds with further offices in Manchester, Glasgow, Edinburgh, London, and Birmingham, is now listed as ‘permanently closed’ on its Google Business profile.
Before it entered voluntary liquidation, 75Media was estimated to have employed a team of more than 60 staff across its six offices.
Just last year, the company acquired 595 new classic 48-sheet roadside OOH billboards, increasing its total estate from 580 to 1175. According to the company, this made it the UK’s second largest wide-format roadside billboard owner behind Global.
Subsequently, 75Media made a raft of new appointments, including a new team of national and international account directors.
The outdoor advertising company also announced a ‘seven-figure investment’ from Mercia Partners in March 2025. At the time of the investment, 75Media described itself as the “fastest-growing roadside media operator” in the UK.
Announcing the news on LinkedIn on November 19th, 75Media said: “Today, the board of directors at 75Media Limited has made the very difficult decision to place the company into voluntary liquidation.
“Over the last six months, the board has explored every viable option to secure the long-term future of the business but sadly, despite extensive negotiations with our infrastructure landlord, it has not been possible to agree a way forward.”
Speaking about its achievements before the liquidation, the company continues: “Since its launch in May 2020, 75Media has always forged its own path, working innovatively to bring the brand-building power of roadside advertising to businesses of all sizes across the UK.
“From its first-of-a-kind billboard optioning and booking system, BOB, to its Ignite membership scheme for start-ups, 75Media has always strived to democratise OOH advertising and bring it closer to real businesses and causes.”
The LinkedIn post, which was signed off by The 75Media board of directors, goes on to mention the hard work of the team working at the company throughout its history, as well as thanking the clients, suppliers, and stakeholders that collaborated with the company.
The statement ends by saying: “While today’s announcement marks the end of our trading journey, we hope that the impact we have made together across the roadside advertising landscape will endure for many years to come.”
