Description

Sight & Sound is seeking a distribution partner that is the best fit for the efficient management of the magazine's retail sales as well as providing the best opportunities for improving the magazine's business.

Sight & Sound requires retail distribution services to both the UK and international markets. In this tender process we welcome applications from consultants, agencies or directly from distributors themselves.

In parallel to the main supply onto the newsstand, a small number of magazines are handled by a specialist distributor who supplies bookshops and specialist retailers in the UK and overseas. As part of this tender process we are inviting bids to take over this modest secondary supply and consolidate into a single distributor - if the current stockists could still be reached
