World map showing underserved territories expansion strategy

IPP Passport
An international sales partnership with Gardners Books Limited

Consolidating distribution and rising export costs are leaving more publishers without a practical way to reach markets their catalogs can still sell in. We run a lean, title-by-title process built specifically for selective international expansion — no exclusive arrangements, no new infrastructure, no disruption to existing channels — at catalog sizes traditional export distribution routinely overlooks.

The Keys to International Sales Success

What powers the programme — weighted differently by publisher and by title

1

Market & Title Analytics

We mine your backlist title-by-title and territory-by-territory to find where proven demand is going unmet.

2

Lean Inventory

Small, responsive stock buffers in UK/EU hubs — monitored and replenished automatically as sales thresholds are hit.

3

Air Freight & Speed

Air freight cuts time-to-market from 6–10 weeks (ocean) to 3–5 days, without large upfront freight commitments.

4

Local Market Positioning

Titles are positioned as local product in UK & European markets, not imports — reducing buyer friction.

5

Metadata Enhancement

We fix and optimize categorization, descriptions and browse-ranking factors so titles are actually discoverable.

6

Territory Customization

Approach, channels and metadata requirements are tailored territory-by-territory, automated wherever possible.
