About Hachette

Hachette Livre S.A. is a French publishing group and public limited company established as a bricks-and-mortar specialty retailer in the Latin Quarter of Paris, France in the early 19th century. It was founded in 1826 by Louis Hachette as the bookshop Brédif, which later became successively L. Hachette et Compagnie, Librairie Hachette, and Hachette SA before being given the name it is currently known by in France: Hachette Livre. After acquiring an Australian publisher, the company formed its Australian national subsidiary, Hachette Australia; in the UK, the company's British subsidiary became known as Hachette UK; and with its expansion into the United States, its American subsidiary was named Hachette Book Group.
