The Hungarian unit of Finnish publishing giant Sanoma has acquired 50pc of internet health portal HaziPatika.com and will raise its stake to 100pc in 2011, Sanoma Budapest told MTI on Thursday.
With the acquisition, Sanoma also gets babaszoba.hu, a portal for families with small children, 50plusz.hu, a portal for people over 50, and egeszsegbolt.hu, an online health products retailer.
HaziPatika.com gets about 850,000 visits a month.
The All Hungary Media Group is firmly committed to freedom of expression and therefore applies a mostly "hands off" approach to comment moderation. Comments left by readers represent their own views and do not necessarily reflect the opinions or beliefs of the staff, editors or owner of the All Hungary Media Group, who nonetheless reserve the right to remove comments that are off-topic or which moderators consider to constitute "hate speech." Also note that in order to prevent spam we generally close entries off to comments several days after publication.
