Kehot Publication Society and Merkos Publications, the publishing divisions of the Chabad Lubavitch movement were established in 1942 by the sixth Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Joseph Isaac Schneersohn. Under the leadership of his successor, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, Kehot claims it has become the world's largest publisher of Jewish literature, with more than 100,000,000 volumes printed to date in Hebrew, Yiddish, English, Russian, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, German, Persian and Arabic. The name Kehot is an acronym for Karnei Hod Torah (the Crown of the Torah's Majesty), and the three Hebrew letters feature in the publishing house's logo.
