Bauer Media now fully owns the Australian and New Zealand editions of OK! Magazine after the publishing company purchased the remaining stake in the publication.
Previously, the publication was co-owned by Northern and Shell, which published the weekly title from 2004 until 2007. Bauer Media bought a 50 per cent stake in the publication in 2007.
Matthew Stanton, CEO of Bauer Media, says the purchase demonstrates the company’s commitment to the market and the title itself. OK! is a key brand in our publishing portfolio and we look forward to taking the title to the next level, with further investment in a number of publishing initiatives across multi-platforms,” Stanton says.
