About us

With a heritage dating back to 1837, when Albert Bonniers Förlag published its first work, Proof That Napoleon Never Existed, Bonnier Books has grown to encompass a wide range of independently run publishing houses. Originating from, and headquartered in, Stockholm, Bonnier Books’ publishing houses are currently active in Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Norway, Germany, Poland and the United Kingdom.

The digital subscription service BookBeat provides audiobooks and e-books across Northern Europe and is today one of Europe’s leading streaming platforms, with over 1,000,000 paying users. Its largest markets are Sweden, Finland, Germany and Poland.

We do not aspire to be the biggest player in our industry, but we always strive to be the best at what we do. Focus is therefore essential: we do not aim to be average at many things, but to excel at a few. This is how we create long-term profitability.
