We're excited about... Morgenmete Magazine

Morgenmete Magazine

Why are indie mags still booming?

The modern indepent magazine is going from strength to strength, yet we’re always being asked how print magazines have managed to survive in this digital age. They've more than survived, they’ve prospered because print and digital go hand in hand. It’s a fantastic partnership. You can’t browse our magazines away from the store without the internet. We couldn’t tempt or bait you to do so without social media. But what successful print magazines understand is that we all crave tactility, or simple touch, and of course smell. Plus, magazines are episodic, agile things that can respond to what’s happening, roll with it and report with verified information. They can put you right at the hub of things. But really, given the production quality of many current titles, you’ll just want to luxuriate in their serene, analog beauty.

Musing on moving

The Magalleria physical store shifted house in September 2021. Moving a magazine inventory of this scale was something few businesses will have attempted because there are hardly any large magazine stores like ours on earth.
