SPCK and Lexham Press announce UK partnership

SPCK is pleased to announce that it will become the sole sales and distribution partner for Lexham Press in the UK and the European Union (EU). Lexham Press titles will be available from Wiley Distribution Services from 15th January 2023.

The partnership offers an opportunity to increase visibility and sales of Lexham Press books in the UK and EU, reinforcing SPCK as the go-to publisher for quality Christian content for booksellers. Lexham joins Crossway, IVP USA, St Vladimir’s Seminary Press and Kregel as a US publisher represented by SPCK in the UK and EU.

Rowan Miller, Head of Sales at SPCK, said, “SPCK is delighted to be taking on the representation of Lexham Press titles. The titles that Lexham publish are truly outstanding, and a perfect fit for church and academic markets in the UK. The mission of Lexham to increase biblical literacy around the world aligns powerfully with SPCK’s own vision to transform the world through the promotion of Christian knowledge. We are excited to see Lexham Press titles connect with readers and change lives”

Kim Shurley, Associate Publisher Marketing & Sales for Lexham Press, concurred, saying, “We couldn’t be more pleased to have such focused and respected representation of Lexham titles in the UK and EU. With Lexham’s diverse catalogue, we are confident SPCK will provide professional, efficient service and exposure to maximize our availability and sales. We are grateful for SPCK’s work and privileged to be welcomed into their catalogue. Together we will deliver outstanding service to the Christian retail products industry and consumers around the world.”
