Bloomsbury Publishing Plc’s Post

Transcript

This is the celebration of Bloomsbury and her Share UK distribution. Today marks pretty much the completion of the Pre Go Live project which has been going on for 13 months now. For many Bloom three staff, this is the first time we've been to the warehouse. Could you please describe today in just one word, exciting beginning, I would say joyous. They're going to go on a tour with Matt, Mark from Hashmap and of course Nigel, this is there a good scene department. So this is essentially where we receive all the books into the warehouse. We can receive up to about 500 pallets a day into this area, prevalence of about 500,000 books and essentially this is where it all starts. We've moved 7 million Bloomsbury books, over 16,000 titles. We're gonna move files for over 65,000 POD titles. We have moved 110,000 records from our Biblio system into HKD SAP system. We've done a lot of work here and we're all very, very excited at what's a new era for Bloomsbury. How do you feel seeing the first box? It's amazing to have Bloomsbury and going live, and this is the first of thousands, if not millions in the years ahead. Trillions. It's so wonderful that we're all meeting our opposite numbers. There's been absolutely brilliant, just the most exciting partnership. I can't wait.
