Mission Statement

Whitaker Publishing is a life-improvement company. We enrich our readers' lives with quality information presented in an attractive, entertaining way; our advertising clients with attractive, effective media to reach those readers; and our associates with a positive work environment that rewards professionalism and creativity.

Our Location

Whitaker Publishing is headquartered in Springfield, the third-largest city of Missouri, metro pop. 360,800. Springfield is the hub of Missouri’s fastest-growing region, with a diverse, entrepreneurial economy with many small businesses. The city is home to about seven colleges and universities, among them Missouri State University’s flagship campus. There is a culture-packed downtown, but it’s also an easy drive for outdoor activities such as canoeing, boating, hiking, fishing, as well as sampling Missouri wineries. Our cost of living is low, but our quality of life is high. Springfield is not far from Kansas City, St. Louis, Columbia, Branson and destinations in northwestern Arkansas. The Springfield-Branson National Airport connects the region to many major U.S. cities, and a Branson airport is in development that will do the same in years to come.
