In the fast-moving world of publishing, staying ahead means constantly improving—and we’ve got fantastic news to share! Bookvault is officially launching local printing in Australia, and it’s all about making your publishing experience better than ever.
Here’s why this exciting development will make a real difference for you:
Save on Shipping Costs: With books now printed in Australia, shipping to local readers just got a whole lot cheaper. That means more savings for you!
Speed Up Delivery: No more waiting around! Your books will get to you and your customers faster with local production.
Support Sustainability: Shorter shipping distances mean fewer carbon emissions—a win for the planet.
Starting this month, some orders headed to Australia will be printed locally, with an expanding range of trim sizes and options to follow over time. We’re rolling this out gradually to ensure a smooth transition, so until it is properly launched, UK pricing remains for a little while as we balance production. But don’t worry—quicker and greener delivery is already here!
Looking ahead, we will integrate the Australian printing option into the Bookvault portal, similar to our successful US setup, gradually implementing further print specifications. Additionally, we’re working to expand our use of Amazon.com.au, supported by this local production, giving you even more opportunities to reach readers.
We’ll keep you updated as this development progresses, if you have any questions, feel free to contact us at [email protected]. Thank you for being part of this exciting journey!
