The distribution area of Ulm, Neu-Ulm and Alb-Donau-Kreis overlaps with several other dailies, including Schwäbische Zeitung, the Augsburger Allgemeinen and the Stuttgarter Nachrichten, and so there is a competitive relationship despite their correspondent and economic co-operation, detailed below.

The main office of Neue Pressegesellschaft in Ulm issues Südwest Presse-produced national and regional stories for a large number of local publishers.

The sections produced are Internationale und Bundes-Politik (international and federal politics), Wirtschaft (economy), Südwest-Umschau (Southwestern sights), Feuilleton (features), Kulturspiegel (cultural mirror), Brennpunkt (focus), Blick in die Welt (worldview), überregionaler Sport (sports in the region), Wochenendbeilage (weekend supplement), and Sonderveröffentlichungen (Special publications).

A total of 18 publishers are behind the correspondent group, located in a region from Bad Mergentheim in the north to Villingen-Schwenningen in the southwest.

They print a weekly public journal for Ulm, Göppingen, Reutlingen, Metzingen, Münsingen and Crailsheim, which includes classifieds.
