Our business model

Bonnier Books is a conduit for the written word, cultivating and conveying captivating and insightful stories from authors to readers and listeners. The group encompasses publishing and retail businesses, spanning traditional and digital-first publishing, a high-quality bookshop chain, and a digital subscription platform providing audiobooks and e-books.

Our companies are independently managed by local leadership teams, each entrusted with operational decision-making. Bonnier Books provides strategic direction and oversees the broader portfolio of businesses.

As a division of the Bonnier Group, we are part of a cultural institution with a legacy of more than 200 years. We are committed to contributing positively to society and reducing our environmental impact across the value chain.

To produce and disseminate quality literature, we work closely with talented authors, translators, illustrators, and other creators, as well as printing houses, audio studios, distributors, sales channels, and other key industry partners.

Our broad market presence and local expertise enable us to connect stories with audiences, whether through printed books, e-books, or audiobooks. Our long-standing heritage, combined with a diversified business structure, allows us to publish and distribute a wide and varied selection of high-quality titles across all markets and channels.

At the core of our business model lies the written word. Authors and other creators are key to our value chain. Together with our experienced publishers and editors, they ensure the quality of our content. Through strong partnerships with printing houses, distributors, and retailers, our marketing and sales teams ensure these stories reach their intended audience.
