Wholesale Advantage

Single Source Solutions is the principal philosophy and reality for the existence of wholesale distributors.

Wholesalers can, and do, save you time and money! When placing a consolidated order with a wholesaler you save significantly in purchasing costs, follow-ups, shipping and accounting outlays.

National Book Service has the Canadian Advantage!

As a wholly owned and operated, Canadian wholesaler, we can provide considerable advantages over foreign suppliers. Our Canadian Edge:

  • Superiority in sourcing Canadian and British titles
  • Interest in supporting the Canadian Publishing Industry
  • Tailoring of products and services to the specific needs of the Canadian customer
