Motor Media acquires Moto Sport Switzerland
The publisher Espace Media has found a buyer for its motorcycle magazines, *Moto Sport Schweiz* and *Moto Sport Suisse*. The specialty publisher Motor Media will take over the magazines from Fachmedien Mobil effective November 1, 2009.
With the takeover of the two motorcycle magazines, 7.1 full-time positions, which are shared by eight employees, can be secured. The parties have agreed not to disclose details of the transfer of the two titles. Motor Media GmbH, based in Glattbrugg, Zurich, is a subsidiary of Druckerei Flawil. It publishes TIR Trans News, an independent trade journal for the Swiss commercial vehicle market, as well as other specialist publications in the transport sector. In September 2009, Fachmedien Mobil announced its intention to concentrate on the two magazines Automobil Revue and Revue Automobile and to look for a new publisher for the two motorcycle magazines.
