Observer and Stiftung Warentest cooperate

Dorothea Kern, Head of Marketing/Sales at Stiftung Warentest in a statement said, "We are delighted to have found a renowned and professional partner in Beobachter to bring our titles closer to Swiss readers."

With the Stiftung Warentest books, the Beobachter, published by Axel Springer Schweiz, is expanding its own guidebook edition in those subject areas where the Swiss connection is not of crucial importance. The range of topics includes cookbooks, home repair guides, gardening and useful plant guides, health guides and books on leisure topics such as photography, cycling or genealogy. Urs Gysling, publishing director of the Beobachter edition: "With the Stiftung Warentest guidebooks in the Beobachter book range, we are occupying new, highly attractive subject areas with the content expertise of 'Stiftung Warentest'. In terms of content and program scope, this is a quantum leap that will further strengthen our position as the leading Swiss provider of advice literature." All "Stiftung Warentest" titles are available in Swiss bookstores and online at Observer.ch available.
