Ringier Vietnam

Ringier Vietnam is the Vietnamese office of Ringier AG, a family-owned Swiss media company with over 175 years of history. It is the largest media corporation in Switzerland. Ringier AG has expanded in the last two decades to include offices in Germany, Hungary, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Czech Republic, China and Vietnam. I began my career with Ringier in 2005 when I was recruited as managing editor of City Weekend. I now manage the Ringier Vietnam office.

Thoi Trang Tre (“New Fashion” magazine) – Manage sales and marketing and provide design and editorial consultation for Vietnam’s first glossy women’s fashion magazine. Thoi Trang Tre launched in 1993 and was redesigned with Ringier support in late 2008 as a mass-market women’s weekly. You’re looking at their 2010 “Tet special.”

Bep Gia Dinh (“Family Cooking” magazine) – Redesigned and relaunched as Vietnam’s first mass-market family cooking and nutrition magazine. Together with its local Vietnamese partner, Ringier manages all aspects of publishing. In less than six months, Bep Gia Dinh became Vietnam’s highest sold family cooking magazine, according to Trung Phat Distribution Co.

Ringier Vietnam will launch several new projects in 2010. Stay tuned.
