Our Services - US
As a periodical
supplier, The News Group distributes more than 4500 different magazines and well over 10,000 book titles. We take pride in delivering excellent service with category management, merchandising, and first-to-market products. The News Group's broad reach and large infrastructure across North America effectively receives, processes, and delivers and tracks over
1 billion periodical copies each year.
Either directly or through our joint ventures, The News Group receives, allocates and delivers magazines and books to customers located across the U.S., with the exception of the New England states. In the U.S. some major customers served by The News Group include Kroger, Safeway, Albertson's, AAFES, Target and Publix.
In most markets, The News Group merchandises a store's retail display to ensure proper presentation of the best-selling titles and to leverage the impulse purchase nature of the product.
In all cases, our Customer Service department and Regional Account Managers work toward increasing your sales and profitability of the category. They'll also present the latest book and magazne products that your consumers want to purchase. We're in business with you, our partners to make the pleasurable experience of reading available to your consumers.
This high profile, high-ring category, has assumed increasing strategic importance to our retail customers. In order to provide a dedicated source of support and coordination for our clients, The News Group has greatly increased its book department's investment in people and technology. The move is just one signal of the company's focus on the book category, which continues to grow as a percentage of total News Group sales.
Through our Partner RS2, we offer RDA incentive dollar collection and check-lane management services. Our difference is that we are in partnership with you, our client, and our focus is on optimizing your sales, ot just RDA payments.
