BBC steps up Australian publishing venture

LONDON - BBC Worldwide is to launch an Australian version of its Good Food magazine - the second title to launch under its joint venture with the country’s ACP Magazines.

In March, BBC Worldwide announced the formation of a 50/50 joint venture with ACP Magazines, Australia's largest magazine publisher, to publish its titles Down Under, the first of which was Top Gear. The new company operates out of ACP Magazines' Sydney office and plans to develop and publish titles from BBC Magazines' portfolio, including lifestyle, children's and special interest titles.

Editor-in-chief of BBC Australian Good Food will be Neale Whitaker, who was the launch editor of the Australian edition of ABC’s delicious and of Waitrose Food Illustrated in the UK. He has also been editorial director of Vogue Entertaining & Travel. Neale remains editor-in-chief of ACP Magazines' interior design bible, Belle.
  
BBC Australian Good Food will be launched at the Sydney Good Food Show in June.
