Independent Magazines from all around the world. Since 2010.
We love magazines and we love to travel. In every country we travelled to, we discovered new publications that were not available in Switzerland. That's why we founded loremnotipsum.com in 2010. Our goal is to offer really cool magazines from all over the world in one common place with worldwide shipping.

Do you run an advertising agency, a café, restaurant, co-working space or another type of company? And are you looking for some new reading material? Then we’ve got good news for you: with our B2B programme, which is available to all business customers, you can offer your own customers or employees our range of magazines or treat your staff to a subscription. Not to mention, you automatically enjoy better terms as a B2B customer.
