Hello
bookseller/distributor..........online or storefront,
We are currently very interested in improving our
sales via internet booksellers in all parts of the world. Especially in
the USA, we need better distribution for books printed by small
publishers in Tokyo. The economics are difficult but we would like to
work with you.
For more detail on us
and what interests us, please see the pages that are directed toward publishers and authors/editors. In general we are
interested only in publications (paper or online, book or periodical)
that are published in English (all or part).
Listing of a title in the JPGS is important and can help an
author. You will be helping your main authors and editors if you will
tell them about JPGS; however, "listing" alone with JPGS is not likely
to help
you unless you are the sole distributor or publisher. IMC can be of more help to book
retailers and distributors.
IMC (Intercontinental Marketing Corp.) is
located in Tokyo. IMC (also imcbook) imports, exports
and
distributes English (and
some Japanese and Chinese) books and periodicals. IMC also handles many
single-copy special orders. IMC is the representative distributor for
several authors and small publishers in Japan. See some of these on http://imcbook.net. IMC is eager to
make these titles available to readers overseas. IMC will work with you
if you have an interest
in books from Japan.
Most Japanese booksellers, whether
storefront or online, do not sell English publications. Fewer than a
dozen chains and retailers are responsible for most of the English book
sales throughout the country. These companies are supplied by a number
of medium and small companies such as IMC. The two biggest book
distributors do not distribute English books, except some English
textbooks and children's books. You can contact IMC at the address here
http://imcbook.net/address.htm.
IMC is small, has been in business for nearly 50
years, is a niche player in publications distribution in Japan. You can
also reach IMC through JPGS.
