Headquartered in Oslo at Akersgata 55, Schibsted continues its legacy by delivering trustworthy journalism and connecting millions of users monthly through its media and marketplace platforms, now structured as a separate media company alongside its marketplace division Vend.

This combination of traditional media strength and advanced digital marketplace operations highlights Schibsted’s dual focus on maintaining high journalistic standards while leading innovation in online commerce.
