Bonnier bucks magazine-closing trend

June 8, 2009

Bonnier Group, the family-owned Swedish company, has become one of the 10 largest magazine owners in America with three acquisitions at a time when many more prominent media groups are closing titles or seeking to sell publishing arms. The contrarian deals, including the acquisition of five titles from Hachette Filipacchi Media last week, give Bonnier $350m in annual magazine revenue in the US, putting it in the top tier just three years after entering the market.
