Kent on Sunday is a regional newspaper covering the Kent region of England. Beginning in 2002, it is published every Sunday of the year and available from supermarkets, garages and newsagents. The paper is the main paper of KOS Media publishing company. In November 2017, it was announced that it would stop publication at the end of the month.
The main focus of this paper is to provide informative regional news and sports services. The paper also includes features of retail, recreation, and lifestyle, plus jobs, cars, and parts of the property. Initially, it also has other local editions, under the "Your Local" series, which are digital and sports-based news titles with traditional content like work, recreation, cars and property as well as a comprehensive leisure and lifestyle section.
In June 2009 Kent on Sunday began to charge 90p per issue at newsagents, while free copies were directed to business rounds and home delivery. Kent on Sunday also has an e-edition, which is available online for free or subscription. The UKPG website quoted KOS Media Managing Director Paul Stannard as saying, "As with any media company, if in the next four to five years we see a market decline at the same level in the last six months, then everyone will be looking at their business model".
In June 2010, it was announced that KOS Media will be taken over by Archant Media Group. Archant is rumored to have previously funded KOS Media Group and decided to take the opportunity to own the company. In January 2011, as part of the restructuring, KOS Media stopped printing the title "Your" and instead just published it as an online E-edition. In January 2011 Kent On Sunday was re-branded with a new pole head.
KOS Media is one of the first local media organizations to have their own iPhone Applications, enabling readers to view through the paper via their iPhone or iPad.
