Launched on September 21, 2012, Bloomsbury is engaged in publishing fiction, non-Fiction, children's, academic, business, and education books by both Indian and international authors. It is one of India's youngest publishing companies but has seen consistent growth over the years.
The company said that it has grown at a Compound Annual Rate Growth (CAGR) of 25 per cent in the last 5 years; outstripping the average industry growth by far in this period.
Bloomsbury marked its arrival in the country with books like "Return of a King: The Battle for Afghanistan" by William Dalrymple, the first Wisden India "Almanack 2013", Manil Suri's novel "The City of Devi" and very soon acquired Shiv Khera, whose books have sold around four million copies.
"When we started in 2012 we were a band of 4 entrepreneurs. There was multi-tasking, firefighting, overcoming odds, and now we are a team of 40, have a smart new office with sufficient expansion possibilities, and have talented and committed staff passionate about making us among the top respected, valued, high growth companies in our sector," said Rajiv Beri, Managing Director, Bloomsbury Publishing, India.
Bloomsbury India's catalogue of authors also include international bestsellers like J.K. Rowling, Khaled Hosseini, Elizabeth Gilbert, Daniel Goleman and Man Booker 2017 shortlisted author, George Saunders; Nobel Prize winners Nadine Gordimer and Patrick Modiano; Booker Prize winner Margaret Atwood and Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Kolbert.
