He printed ''Kavanagh's Weekly'' in 1952, which featured Patrick Kavanagh. Due the success, Hugh McLaughlin decided to continue to publish indigenous Irish magazines. These would compete with British magazines. Titles included ''Creation'', ''Irish Farmers Journal'', ''Woman's Way'', ''Woman's Choice'', ''Business & Finance'', ''This Week'' (1969-1972) and ''Nikki.'' These magazines were published by his company the Creation group. ''Business & Finance'' is a business magazine that was established by McLaughlin in September 1964.〔("Hugh McLaughlin (1918 - 2006)" ), Europe Intelligence Wire, 12 January 2006〕
In 1973 McLaughlin founded the ''Sunday World'' with his business partner Gerry McGuinness. By 1977, Creation went into liquidation, which resulted in magazine titles being sold and in 1978 Independent Newspapers took control of 54 per-cent in the Sunday World. Hugh McLaughlin went on to established another Sunday newspaper, the ''Sunday Tribune'', with business partner John Mulcahy. In 1982, he unsuccessfully launched a daily newspaper, the ''Daily News''. This was to be his last publishing venture.
In retirement McLaughlin invented a machine, the water hog, that removed water from cricket pitches and putting greens.
