Mondadori Books and Media

Founded in 1907 by Arnoldo Mondadori, the company has grown into Italy's largest publishing house and a major player in the European media landscape. Initially focused on magazine publishing, it quickly expanded into books, including prestigious literary collections and school textbooks.

Today, the Mondadori Group operates across multiple segments including trade books, educational publishing, and digital media. While its primary manufacturing and editorial operations are based in Italy, the brand maintains a significant international footprint through various partnerships and distribution channels. The brand is synonymous with Italian culture and intellectual history.

Ownership of the group has been consolidated within the Fininvest holding company, owned by the Berlusconi family. This ownership structure ensures that the brand remains a central pillar of the Italian media industry while maintaining its legacy of literary excellence.
