MUSIC AND VISUAL

Looking to get your music or visual products on the shelves of HMV, Fopp, and our online store? Here's what you need to know:

  • Distribution is key: We typically work with established music and visual distributors who already have a relationship with us. This ensures a smooth experience for both our stores and customers, and offers you potential cost benefits.
  • We have many distribution partners: We collaborate with a wide network of distributors. If you would like details of some of the distributors that we use and that you could approach, please email us and be sure to include full details of the music or visual that you wish us to consider stocking.
  • Quality and marketability matter: We consider several factors when making stocking decisions, including pricing, sales potential and your marketing plans. While having a distribution deal helps, it doesn't guarantee your product will be selected.

    

LOCAL ARTISTS AND BANDS
