Newsweek began publishing international editions in 1972. Today Newsweek is distributed in more than 190 countries with a worldwide audience of over 21 million readers.

"With distribution in so many countries around the world, Newsweek required a truly international fulfilment solution. One that offered tried and tested systems, services and solutions was seen as critical to its business,” said Sue Knights, Senior Vice President and Managing Director of TW4. “With this latest contract, which represents a significant win for TW4, we have proven that we have the innovation, expertise and global capability to support the needs of the world’s leading international magazines. We are delighted and privileged to have been given the opportunity to work with Newsweek, one of the worlds most influential and prestigious publications, and we look forward to a long, happy and productive partnership over the years to come.”

“The transition from one fulfilment service to another is always a difficult process to undertake, but it is clear that TW4 possesses the people and systems that will enable us to analyze our circulation business in a more sophisticated manner and provide our subscribers with a superior level of customer support,” said Newsweek President Harold Shain.
