LONDON, UK (AUGUST 29, 2024) – Ingram Publisher Services® UK (“IPS UK”), an Ingram Content Group UK Ltd. brand, has signed international academic and professional publisher Goodfellow Publishers for distribution services beginning September 1, 2024. This collaboration enables Goodfellow Publishers to implement stock-free distribution, an innovative approach eliminating stock gaps and supply disruptions, offering unparalleled efficiency and sustainability, and ensuring seamless availability of all titles.
"Goodfellow Publishers is a great fit for IPS UK," said Matthew Dickie-Cross, Senior Manager of IPS UK. "In addition to a vast amount of experience in multichannel publishing, their excellent title list is highly relevant to an academic and professional audience that increasingly looks as much towards practical advice as theory. We are also excited to support their transition to a zero-stock model. Our fully integrated virtual stock program, Lightning Source, aligns perfectly with Goodfellow’s commitment to innovation.”
Sally North, Editorial Director at Goodfellow Publisher, mirrored this enthusiasm: “I’m incredibly
impressed by the speed, efficiency and ease of the whole onboarding process by the IPS UK team, and we’re looking forward to working alongside them in the coming years.” In addition, Tim
Goodfellow, Co-Director at Goodfellow Publishers, commented: “Speed-to-market has always been one of our focusses, and we look forward to being able to grow underpinned by best-in-class distribution technology.”
With a focus on tourism, hospitality, events, marketing, management and sustainability, and with a distinguished stable of expert authors, Goodfellow Publishers is well positioned to take full
advantage of IPS UK’s resources and global network. Goodfellow Publishers joins a host of
distinguished academic and professional clients at IPS UK, one sector where the distribution business has seen significant sales growth over the last 12 months. This agreement also marks an unprecedented run of new publisher signings for IPS UK, averaging a new client a month since the year began.
