Printing and Publishing Services

1. Distribution Services

If your book or product is already printed, we can consider adding it to our inventory for trade distribution.

· Products covered: Books, greeting cards, and gift items.

The easiest way for us to add your book to our distribution and websites is if you add it to IngramSpark, then let us know the details in the Distribution form below for us to add it.

If you want us to take copies from your own supply please follow this is how the process works:

· Firstly, please complete the Distribution form at the bottom of this webpage.

· Samples: Please send a sample copy and a cover letter (including your contact details and any relevant information about the product) to:

Joy McIlroy
Kingsway CLC Trust
Unit 5 Glendale Ave
Sandycroft
Deeside
CH5 2QP

· Assessment: Once reviewed, we’ll confirm if we’re able to stock the item.

· Stock: If accepted, stock should be sent to our warehouse on consignment (at your expense).

· Sale or Return: After a set period (e.g. 12 months), we’ll assess stock levels and may retain, return, or dispose of unsold copies.

· Trade Discount: Titles must be offered at a discount that allows for standard trade terms (typically around 55%).

Please note that while we do not provide marketing services, your product will be made available to trade accounts and retail partners through our existing channels.
