History and profile

edit

Året Runt was started by Åhlén & Åkerlunds förlag (today Bonnier AB) in 1946.[1] During the initial period the magazine targeted rural readers.[1] Gunny Widell served as the editor-in-chief of the magazine.[2][3] Another family magazine, Vårt Hem, merged with Året Runt in 1951.[1] Året Runt began to include a TV section from 1960.[1]

Bonnier sold Året Runt to its rival company Aller Media due to poor circulation levels in the mid-1980s.[1][4][5] The magazine is published by Allers Förlag AB on a weekly basis.[6] The headquarters of Året Runt moved from Stockholm[7] to Malmö in January 2016.[4] The magazine featured interviews with both famous personalities such as Ingmar Bergman[8] and other women figures.[6]
