Newsweek conversion into TW4 a great success!

TW4 fulfilment services has successfully completed the conversion process from Newsweek’s previous fulfillment bureau into TW4. Newsweek is now fully operational and integrated into TW4. The conversion teams from both companies have successfully completed this complex conversion within the required time frame and TW4 is now providing a broad line of subscription fulfilment services for Newsweek Magazine’s international editions.

“The transition from one fulfilment service to another is always a challenging process to undertake, but it is clear that TW4 possesses the people, systems and expertise that have enabled us to get to this stage efficiently and on time. We now have the opportunity to analyze our circulation business in a more sophisticated manner and to provide our subscribers with a superior level of customer support,” said Newsweek President Harold Shain.

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.

“This successful conversion represents another significant milestone for TW4 and proves 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.”
