Franco Cosimo Panini Editore S.p.A.

Franco Cosimo Panini Editore S.p.A. was founded in 1989 in Modena by Franco Cosimo Panini after the sale of the renowned comic and sticker publishing company. The publishing house specializes in art publications, children's books, and school products. Its standout offerings include the "Mirabilia Italiae" art series, dedicated to the main monuments of Italy's artistic heritage, and the "La Biblioteca Impossibile" collection, featuring facsimile editions of Renaissance illuminated manuscripts. Since 1991, Franco Cosimo Panini Editore has also been publishing children's books, with a focus on the 0-8 age group. Notable segments of its catalog revolve around iconic characters such as La Pimpa by Altan and Giulio Coniglio by Nicoletta Costa. The publishing house has a presence in stationery stores and large retailers with school supplies and leisure accessories, both under its own brands and through licensing agreements. In the realm of school diaries, Comix stands out as the flagship brand, maintaining an annual circulation exceeding 1.3 million copies and dominating the market. Currently, there is no record of the last investment or the participating investors.
