Jordi takes over the aviation magazine Cockpit
The Belp-based media company Jordi is taking over the aviation magazine Cockpit from Ziegler Druck- und Verlags- AG in Winterthur on December 1, 2010. On this date, the 112-year-old company will also move into its new operations and administration building in the industrial area of the airport community of Belp.
In the interests of continuity, the current editors Max Ungricht, editor-in-chief, and Elisabeth Schenk, design, have been retained for the long term.
Jordi employs 88 people and already has ten specials in its publishing portfolio. For reasons of space and capacity, the SME decided to build a new company and administration building. The family business is now run by the 4th and 5th generation.
Ziegler Druck- und Verlags- AG has gradually reduced its magazine publishing business as part of a strategic realignment. This process has now been completed with the sale of Cockpit. Ziegler is the publisher of the daily newspaper Der Landbote.
Cockpit celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2009. Originally conceived as a youth magazine, it is now a specialist magazine for the Swiss aviation scene. Despite generally eroding readership figures, Cockpit has recently been able to grow.
