Effective August 1, Simon & Schuster will handle sales to select accounts and distribution in North America for IglooBooks, the Bonnier Publishing division that publishes mass market adult and children's books. The agreement expands on the existing relationship between S&S and Bonnier Publishing USA, which includes sales and distribution for Little Bee Books, Sizzle Press, Weldon Owen and Blue Streak Books.
Founded in 2003 and acquired by Bonnier Publishing in 2014, IglooBooks publishes in 36 languages and is sold in 58 countries.
Jeremy Nurnberg, director of sales for IglooBooks, said: "As we continue with Igloo's ambitious North American expansion, we see our relationship with Simon & Schuster as an exciting new phase in the company's history. With S&S's fantastic operations team and their efficiencies, we’re looking forward to taking our product into more markets than ever before."
