Ararat Publishing Society

In 1941, the Ararat Publishing Society was founded as a Hebrew publishing house in London by Benzion Margulies, his brother Alexander (in England since 1931) and Simon Rawidowicz (came to England in 1933 after the Machtergreifung).

Benzion became the manager of the new company. He immigrated to England in 1933, where he got a residence permit one year later.
