Publisher
Publisher d.o.o. was founded by Goran Veselinović, the godfather of the leader of the Serbian Progressive Party, Aleksandar Vučić, in November 2015. Veselinović has been the owner of 100% of this company since its establishment until today. The company started publishing the weekly magazine Ekspres six months later, at the end of April 2016. The company saw frequent changes in top management the first two years of its existence.
Ekspres was registered in the Media Register of the Serbian Business Registry Agency in February 2016, and the first issue was published in April of that year.
Veselinović also owns the PR agency Right, which took over most of the advertising market in Serbia after 2012, when Vučić's Serbian Progressive Party became the ruling party in Serbia.
