'''Hachette Livre''' S.A. ({{IPA|fr|aʃɛt livʁ|lang}}; simply known as Hachette) is a French publishing group and public limited company established as a bricks-and-mortar specialty retailer in the Latin Quarter of Paris, France in the early 19th century. It was founded in 1826 by Louis Hachette as the bookshop Brédif, which later became successively L. Hachette et Compagnie (from French; English: "L. Hachette and Company"), Librairie Hachette ("Hachette Booksellers"), and Hachette SA before being given the name it is currently known by in France: Hachette Livre ("Hachette Book(s)"). After acquiring an Australian publisher, the company formed its Australian national subsidiary, Hachette Australia; in the UK, the company's British subsidiary became known as Hachette UK; and with its expansion into the United States, its American subsidiary was named Hachette Book Group.
Hachette Livre has been owned by the Lagardère Group since 1981 under their publishing division Lagardère Publishing. Lagardère Group in turn is majority owned by the French conglomerate Louis Hachette Group (LHG), resulting from the spin-off of Vivendi.
The company is today headquartered at 58 Rue Jean Bleuzen in the commune of Vanves in the suburban outskirts of Paris.
==History== ===France=== It was founded in 1826 by Louis Hachette as Brédif, a bookshop and publishing company. It became L. Hachette et Compagnie on 1 January 1846, Librairie Hachette in 1919, and Hachette SA in 1977. The company was family led for several generations, including by Hachette's great-grandson, Robert Meunier du Houssoy.<ref name="Time1963">{{cite news |title=Publishers: France's Giant |url=https://time.com/archive/6832058/publishers-frances-giant/ |access-date=23 September 2024 |work=Time |date=8 November 1963 |language=en}}</ref> It was acquired by the Lagardère Group in 1981. In 1992, the publishing assets of Hachette SA were grouped into a subsidiary called Hachette Livre ({{IPA|fr|a.ʃɛt liːvʁ}}), the flagship imprint of Lagardère Publishing.
