The latest publisher to add terms and offers for independent booksellers in the wake of Baker & Taylor's decision no longer to serve the retail wholesale market is Candlewick Press.
In addition to longstanding programs--CHIRP, the indie handselling program; CHIRP Evergreen, which promotes backlist favorites; and new store programs--Candlewick's new, enhanced offers include:
- Candlewick's seasonal backlist stock offer, providing additional discount and dating, now has a reduced unit minimum and is available multiple times per season. For more details, click here.
- Candlewick has added a wholesale offer for indie bookstores that have book fair adjuncts.
- Candlewick is a participating client publisher in PRH's Indie Express program for bookstores that had been ordering exclusively from B&T.
John Mendelson, Candlewick's senior v-p of sales, commented: "Candlewick is committed to supporting our independent bookselling partners, especially during this period of change. We hope that our new and existing special offers contribute to the vitality of a diverse retail marketplace."
