The 188pp publication has an initial print run of around 50,000 and repro work will be done in-house. Homes Worldwide is a monthly magazine for people who are looking to buy a second home abroad. The first issue was launched this month and Merricks Media hopes to sell 20,000 issues.
Founded in 1998, Merricks Media also publishes French, Greece, Spanish and Portugal magazines. It also produces Antiques & Collectables.
"We have been developing rapidly this year, doubling in size since January. Homes Worldwide is another key piece in the jigsaw," said Merricks Media managing director Lisa Doerr.
The company was shortlisted for PPA Publisher of the Year in May 2003 for French magazine.
