Arcadia Publishing will distribute titles by Quarto Group's Voyageur Press and Cool Springs Press imprints specialty garden, home improvement and hardware accounts.
Tara Catogge, v-p, sales director, at Quarto Publishing Group USA, commented: "Arcadia Publishing has been the shining example of successful distribution into specialty markets. With thousands of active accounts, there is no town too small or too far that their team doesn't reach. We see a lot of growth opportunity by combining Arcadia's exceptional field sales force and focused market strategy with Quarto's expansive regional title list and bestselling garden and branded home-improvement titles."
Ken Fund, president and CEO of Quarto Publishing Group, added: "As part of our rapid expansion into specialty markets, we were looking for a partner to help us reach those small and often remote retailers that are the core market for our garden and home-improvement lists and we found it in Arcadia."
