Editora Globo to Acquire CasaCor From Abril Pending Antitrust Review

The purchase would extend Globo’s lifestyle events footprint pending regulatory review.

Overview

  • A Monday agreement between Editora Globo and Abril sets up the sale of the CasaCor architecture and design brand.
  • The deal requires approval from Brazil’s antitrust watchdog Cade, and CasaCor will keep operating on its own during the review.
  • CasaCor runs more than 20 franchises, including editions in Peru, Bolivia and Costa Rica, and its 2025 São Paulo show drew about 130,000 visitors.
  • Globo says the brand will strengthen its cultural-events strategy and complement titles such as Casa Vogue and Casa e Jardim.
  • CasaCor’s calendar and website remain unchanged so exhibitors and visitors can keep plans on track, as Abril shifts focus to its other events and services.
