Haymarket Media Group
The Haymarket Media Group is the largest privately-owned publishing company in the United Kingdom. It also has offices in Australia, China, Germany, Brussels, India, Japan, Singapore and the USA.[1]
It was founded by Michael Heseltine, who later became a minster under the Thatcher government, and a friend from his time at university. This was with the publication of the "Directory of Opportunities for Graduates" in 1957. It was renamed from "Haymarket Publishing" to "Haymaket Media Group" in 2007 to reflect a growing presence in internet media.
Haymarket has publications in the consumer, business, professional and customer sectors, both print and online. It also operates exhibitions allied to its own publications, and on behalf of organisations such as the BBC. Haymarket also licenses some publications to other companies for translation and sale in other countries, or licenses the name for publication in local editions.
In the UK, its main offices are located in Hammersmith and Teddington, both in London, with additional offices in Gloucester and Northampton.[2]
Haymarket runs an annual Christmas Party for all of its London staff. These have been held for some years in a large tented structure in Battersea Park.
