Working together
for more diversity
Small and medium-sized publishers form the backbone of diversity and independence in the German press industry. In order to pool their interests and represent them effectively, we have founded the Verband Mittelständischer Verlage e.V. (Association of Medium-Sized Publishers). This association is committed to the interests of these publishers in press distribution. We work together to create competitive conditions and maintain the diversity of the press landscape - both nationally and internationally.
Equal opportunities
for everyone
Our aim is to provide our member publishers with free and non-discriminatory access to the press market. This includes the nationwide distribution of newspapers and magazines at fair conditions. We are committed to ensuring that our members have equal opportunities in the market. As an association, we represent their interests in industry agreements - be it in dialog with press wholesalers, their associations or in agreements with station booksellers and other retail structures.
