About Zefara
Zefara OÜ is an independent publishing studio based in Tallinn, Estonia. Founded on the belief that literature transcends borders, we focus on bringing stories to life across languages and cultures. Estonia’s role as a digital hub in Europe provides us with the tools to publish with speed, flexibility, and reach, while our commitment to editorial excellence ensures a lasting impact.
Core Values
- Editorial Innovation — exploring new ways of creating and sharing literature.
- Internationalization — connecting readers across multiple markets and languages.
- Diversity — embracing voices and stories from a wide cultural spectrum.

OUR FOCUS
We specialize in four key areas that define our publishing philosophy:
Publishing Formats
From beautifully designed print editions to e-books and audiobooks, we adapt stories to the formats that today’s readers value most.
Editorial Craft
Every book deserves care. Our editorial process covers editing, proofreading, and design to ensure clarity, beauty, and precision.
Translation & Localization
Language should never be a barrier. We prioritize multilingual publishing, beginning with Estonian, English, and Portuguese, and expanding across Europe.
Cultural Dialogue
We see publishing as cultural exchange bringing ideas across borders and helping readers discover new perspectives that challenge and inspire growth.
OUR VISION
At Zefara, we envision a publishing house that reflects Europe’s linguistic richness and cultural diversity. Our goal is to become a leading platform for multilingual publishing, rooted in Estonia yet expanding internationally. We believe in literature as a timeless medium of connection—uniting readers, fostering dialogue, and ensuring stories endure across generations.
