Yellow Media (formerly Yellow Pages Income Fund) is a digital company in Canada. Yellow Media owns and operates some Canadian properties and publications including Yellow Pages directories, YellowPages.ca, Canada411.ca, and RedFlagDeals.com. Its online destinations reach approximately 9 million of unique visitors monthly and its mobile applications for finding local businesses, deals and vehicles have been downloaded over 3 million times. The company was founded following the buyout of Bell Canada's directory business and subsequently acquired SuperPages Canada, the directory publisher for Telus. In October 2008, Yellow Pages was named one of "Canada's Top 100 Employers" by Mediacorp Canada Inc. and was featured in ''Maclean's'' newsmagazine, the only directory publisher to receive this honour. In March 2011, Yellow Pages sold Trader Corporation to funds advised by APAX Partners for $745 million.〔Robin Wauters, TechCrunch.
