About Us

Overview:

  • VBW has been servicing the book industry with quality books since 1977.
  • With representatives throughout Australia, VBW has become one of the largest and most respected book wholesalers in Australia.
  • VBW sources most of its stock from overseas this is to ensure variety at competitive prices and a high degree of exclusivity. We do sell books and games that are purchased in Australia that are available to VBW exclusively.
  • We have over 15,000 titles available in a variety of genres in our warehouse at any time and we usually release more than 100 new titles each month.

 

What we do best:

  • Collaborative Approach:  VBW sales representatives are not only there to sell to you, but also to work with you to maximise your sales.

  • Display Stands:  VBW has a limited number of display stands suitable for internal or external use.  Contact us to see if we can help in this regard.
  • Mechandising:  Where possible, our sales representatives can help replenish and set up stock on a regular basis.
  • Catalogue Sales:  VBW prepares four catalogue sales each year which any customer can join.  These are promoted with glossy, full-colour fliers which are a great way of promoting your business, as well as the, at minimal cost.  In addition, we prepare stock and point-of-sale material for special promotions such as Father's Day, Christmas, Winter Reading, Holiday Reading, etc.
  • Outpost and Mall Sales:  Whether it's for 1 or 100 tables, VBW can supply stock, tables and table cloths and can often help set up outpost sales in an empty shop or in a shopping mall.

  • Price Labels:  Books can be supplied with or without removable price labels.
  • Electronic Invoices:  VBW can e-mail you an electronic invoice compatible with POS Solutions, Tower, Computerlink and possibly other accounting systems.  Electronic invoices save you scanning and keying the details of each title and enable you to immediately scan barcodes to effect a sale and update your sales figures, inventory, etc.  The electronic invoice also reminds you of the best time to process returns.  Retailers using electronic invoices are extremely happy with the time saved and accuracy of records.
