Edipresse is a company headquartered in Switzerland. Its main activities are magazine publishing, real estate and digital ventures.
The company was founded in 1907 by Paul Allenspach, publisher of the newspaper La Feuille d'Avis de Lausanne . [1] In 1937, the Lamunière and Payot families took joint control over the company. In 1982, Marc and Pierre Lamunière acquired majority control of the company, which became Edipresse SA.
In the 1980s, Edipresse's operations – newspaper and magazine publishing, printing – took place only in Switzerland. During the 1990s, the group expanded its activities internationally, mainly in Southern and Eastern Europe. In 2005, Edipresse entered several Asian markets. Edipresse Media Asia publishes Tatler editions in Hong Kong, the Philippines, mainland China, Singapore, Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand.

This procedure was closed in October 2013, making Edipresse a pure family office since then, owned by the Lamunière family.
