The Editora Globo (Globo Editors) is a respected Brazilian publishing house, property of Fundação Roberto Marinho. It began as a bookstore called Livraria do Globo, created in Porto Alegre, in December 1883, by Laudelino Pinheiro de Barcellos and Saturnino Alves Pinto.
History
The bookstore "Livraria do Globo" begun as in a little store located at "Rua da Praia" (Beach's Road) Number 268. The bookstore worked daily since 6:30 am to 10:00 pm, including Saturdays. With a little business success, the bookstore started working as a graphic house, making bookbidings and other small services and the building where it was located suffered a small reformation.
In 1917, the bookstore became an intellectual point, receiving the daily visit of writers, poets, politicians and liberal thinkers. Its first branch store was created in Santa Maria, near the old ferryway center of Rio Grande do Sul. The "Livraria do Globo's" owners decided to create an own magazine, called "Revista do Globo".
In the 1940s, the bookstore company reached its top success, with three branch stores in Brazil's South Region and offices in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. In 1986 the bookstore was sold to Rio Gráfica Editora, property of Fundação Roberto Marinho, that decided to rename its publishing house to Editora Globo, which continues as the current name.
