Wellhausen & Marquardt Medien

Wellhausen & Marquardt Medien is a German publishing house specializing in special-interest media, with a focus on hobby and leisure topics. Founded in 1998 by Tom Wellhausen and Sebastian Marquardt, the company began with a magazine for remote-controlled model trucks and expanded into multiple niche segments including model building, food, crafts, and dolls and teddy bears. The publisher produces around nine kiosk magazines, numerous special publications, and maintains approximately 30 internet presences. It also offers PR and publishing services for third parties. With about 15 permanent employees and 400 authors, Wellhausen & Marquardt Medien reaches over 400,000 engaged readers through its print and digital brands. The company has been organizing the Teddybär total trade fair since 2012 and continues to operate as a private, independent publisher.

Wellhausen & Marquardt Medien was founded in 1998 by Tom Wellhausen and Sebastian Marquardt as a side project, launching the magazine Trucks & Details, which focused on remote-controlled model trucks. By the end of 1999, Marquardt left his freelance journalism work, and in early 2000, Wellhausen left his employment at Bauer Verlag to become self-employed. The company then launched additional magazines in the model-building sector and acquired titles in the kite sports segment (2000 and 2006) and the dolls and teddy bear segment (2009 and 2010). In 2017, the publisher entered the food segment with the magazine Brot. In 2010, through the acquisition of parts of the Duisburg-based publisher Wohlfarth, the company added an extensive book program with doll and teddy literature. Since 2012, the publisher has organized the Teddybär total trade fair. The company has also offered PR work for third parties and publishing services since its founding. As of recent years, the publisher produces around nine kiosk magazines and numerous special publications, operates approximately 30 internet presences, and employs about 15 permanent staff along with 400 authors.
