Hearst Magazine UK - Closure of Zest Magazine

Dear Affiliates,

As you have probably heard by now, Hearst Magazines UK has announced its intention to close Zest magazine with the January issue being the last issue published.

Closing a magazine is never an easy decision, but we believe it is the right move to ensure the Hearst Magazines UK business remains robust and adaptable for the future.  Hearst Magazines UK has a portfolio of 20 of the UK’s biggest selling magazines and in the Health and Fitness market, we already publish Women’s Health, a phenomenally successful title.

Subscribers to Zest will receive a letter with their January issue of the magazine, advising them of a special offer to subscribe to Women’s Health or alternatively how they can receive a refund for the remainder of their subscription.

With immediate effect could you please remove Zest from any communication being sent out and also take down Zest magazine from your sites. Hearst will honour any outstanding orders for Zest magazine, received up to today.

Many thanks for your help in you this matter and please don’t hesitate to contact me should you have any questions.

Kindest regards,

Gemma
