Thankful Distribution
- in partnership with Bookprint


Thankful Distribution exists to help small and independent publishers achieve a higher profile:

  • In the Christian book retail environment

  • On websites such as Amazon.co.uk

  • Within the mainstream retail trade

We do this by working closely with the following:

Nova Distribution This rapidly growing part of the Kingsway Communications group represents many leading American publishers. They are not able to deal with small presses releasing only a handful of titles per annum because of the volume of paperwork involved in setting up and then administering an account. They have agreed to work with us as a consolidator and bring the following advantages to you as a book publisher.

  • They send a full colour brochure every month to every UK Christian outlet

  • They have representatives visiting shops every day

  • They have a tele-sales team working with smaller accounts

  • They use the resources of STL, the UK’s largest Christian wholesaler and distributor. This means that shops can order your book and receive next day delivery in most circumstances

  • Your book is featured on their order form which is widely used by many retailers


Thankful Books Our co-operative publishing service helps many authors publish specialist books for the Christian market with enhanced profiling and sales potential, also via Nova. The same expertise also benefits Thankful Distribution clients.

Gardners Books This large scale wholesaler is a major supplier to the mainstream bookshop trade. Your book will be made available to them and can be ordered by any high street or independent store. (This doesn’t mean they will stock it in your local store as there is fierce competition for shelf space, but at least the possibility is there.)

Amazon Books We will ensure that your book can be made available via this leading Internet bookshop. This arrangement means fast delivery to your potential customers rather than the 6-8 weeks specified for some books and the extra charges levied for
hard-to-find titles.

Overseas Sales Thankful can present your book to overseas publishers at several large publishing events and via our international rights representative during the course of his ordinary work. Both of our overseas rights experts are high profile figures in
UK Christian publishing.

Overseas shops can order your book from our distribution team of Kingsway and STL. For large orders we can work with you to give overseas buyers special rates and special delivery direct from our stocks of your book.

Your book will also be on Amazon.co.uk which will give buyers worldwide a simple way to purchase single copies via the internet.
