History

Grant Broadcasters was founded by Walter Grant in 1942 when he bought 2DU in Dubbo. In 1972 a shareholding in 2ST in Nowra was purchased followed in 1979 by 2PK in Parkes and in 1982 2MG in Mudgee. In 1986 2DU, 2PK and 2MG were sold with full ownership taken of 2ST. Over the next three decades, the company expanded through acquisition, purchasing radio stations in all states and territories of Australia, owning 53 stations by November 2021.[1] In January 2022, Here, There & Everywhere purchased 46 stations from Grant Broadcasters and integrated these into its ARN business.[2][3][4] The deal was finalised on 4 January 2022.[5]
