Hachette UK announced the acquisition of Kogan Page on 1st May 2026. Following the acquisition, Kogan Page is now part of the John Murray Group and continues to operate as a distinct publishing brand within the division, maintaining its market-leading focus while benefiting from Hachette’s global distribution, marketing capabilities, and technological infrastructure.
