LS Distribuzione Editoriale
To guarantee the presence of its own titles in Italian libraries, Edizioni
PLUS has signed a distribution contract with LS Distribuzione Editoriale,
a company dedicated to the complex and delicate market of library circulation.
LS has been a reference point for library supply service for 15 years.
Through the Servizio Novità (Innovation Service) developed with
library coupons - a tool that no other company in the sector offers and
which is already functional in over 150 libraries - librarians have the
opportunity to preview Edizioni PLUS's new products before their release.
PDE, Promozione Distribuzione Editoriale
Edizioni PLUS is promoted and distributed on the national level by PDE.
Currently PDE distributes the publications of approximately 200 publishers,

Supply orders are dispatched on average within 48 hours. The company has
a staff of 145 distribution employees who work in 16,000 square meters
of warehouses. With this agreement Edizioni PLUS has achieved its twofold
objective of controlling the market through extensive presence across
the national territory and, at the same time, also offering useful centralized
services.
