Mission
Erudist specializes in the distribution and marketing of international scholarly works in France and Francophone Europe.
Our mission is to provide access to quality books in the Humanities and social sciences.
We distribute more than 12,000 titles from publishers in countries across Europe, including France, Switzerland, Italy, the Netherlands and Belgium.
Distribution
Erudist offers publishers a unique range of services, distributing titles not only to professional and institutional clients, but also to private individuals.
We provide integral order processing in France and Francophone Europe for academic and scholarly publishers.
We provide all necessary logistical services, including warehousing, shipment and routing.
We ensure all client relations, from invoicing to collection management, fulfillment and returns.
Book orders for Paris are delivered from our state-of-the-art warehouses within 48 hours.
We work with the specialized logistical hub PRISME to ensure rapid delivery for clients in outlying areas. Clients can also choose to receive their orders through private or public postal carriers.
Marketing
We personally reference our publishers' catalogues on Dilicom, the primary database for libraries and trade professionals in France.
Our newly developed website provides access to our entire catalogue with sophisticated internal search functions and numerous possibilities for digital presentations and distribution.
Our website is designed for optimal and dynamic referencing with internet search engines, providing publishers with an enhanced online presence in France and Francophone Europe.
We feature our publishers' recent releases in a semiannual sales brochure mailed to over 1,000 carefully chosen university and research libraries, book stores and trade professionals. Our welcome page spotlights recent publications, which also appear in our regular newsletters.
We promote our publishers' new releases during the major French and European book fairs, where our representatives themselves hold advanced university degrees and understand the academic content of our catalogue.
We work carefully with trade professionals to simplify access to our publishers' catalogues and ensure that publications are strategically represented without wasting resources.
