Book Fairs

Currently Central Books attend two annual trade fairs, Frankfurt Book Fair in October and London Book Fair in March or April. We offer shelf space to magazine and book publishers that we distribute. We do charge publishers for their shelf space, but the price is a fraction of the cost of taking out your own stand. Publishers should see taking up shelf space as general marketing or an advertisement. It will not always lead to a direct order at the fair but may lead to a later order. The Central Books stand is organised by Regine Henrich, who staffs the stands with other key personnel. The Fairs can also offer useful networking for publishers and an easy way to meet and re-meet Central Books staff. We hope that by offering our publishers space at these fairs they can take advantage of a stand without the headache and expense of organising their own stand.

If you are one of our client publishers we recommend that you subscribe to our email list. Regine Henrich uses these lists to email out details of how to book space on forthcoming fairs, shelf space is booked on a first come first served basis and is often sold out. To make sure you get the relevant emails follow the links below.
