Editing Factory Records (section)

==Successor labels==
In 1994, Wilson attempted to revive Factory Records, in collaboration with London Records, as "Factory Too". The first release was by Factory stalwarts [[the Durutti Column]]; the other main acts on the label were [[Hopper (band)|Hopper]] and [[Space Monkeys]], and the label gave a UK release to the first album by [[Stephin Merritt]]'s side project [[the 6ths]], ''Wasps' Nests''. A further release ensued: a compilation EP featuring previously unsigned Manchester acts [[East West Coast]], [[the Orch]], [[Italian Love Party]], and [[K-Track]]. This collection of 8 tracks (2 per band) was simply entitled ''A Factory Sample Too'' (FACD2.02). The label was active until the late 1990s, latterly independent of London Records, as was "Factory Once", which organised reissues of Factory material.<ref name="FACorg" />

Wilson founded a short-lived fourth incarnation, F4 Records, in the early 2000s.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://factoryrecords.org/f4-records.php|title=Factory Records: F4 Records|website=Factoryrecords.org}}</ref>

In 2012, [[Peter Saville (artist)|Peter Saville]] and [[James Nice]] formed a new company called Factory Records Ltd., in association with Alan Erasmus and Oliver Wilson (son of Tony). This released only a vinyl reissue of ''[[From the Hip (Section 25 album)|From the Hip]]'' by [[Section 25 (band)|Section 25]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://news.cerysmaticfactory.info/2012/05/section-25-fact-90-from-hip-vinyl-issue.html |title=Cerysmatic Factory: Section 25 FACT 90 From The Hip vinyl issue |publisher=News.cerysmaticfactory.info |date=24 May 2012 |access-date=2013-10-12}}</ref> Nice subsequently revived the [[Factory Benelux]] imprint for Factory reissues, and for new recordings by Factory-associated bands.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://news.cerysmaticfactory.info/2012/12/a-factory-benelux-story.html |title=Cerysmatic Factory: A Factory Benelux Story |publisher=News.cerysmaticfactory.info |access-date=2013-03-01}}</ref> In 2019 Warner Music Group marked the 40th anniversary of Factory as a record label with a website, exhibition, and select vinyl editions including ''[[Unknown Pleasures]]'' and box set compilation Communications 1978-1992.
