Would you like to sell books through your retail outlet? Bittern Books specialises in local history, maps, guidebooks, and fiction set in your local area.
Local interest books can create a useful additional revenue stream for all sorts of retailers – from village shops to large department stores, gift shops in museums and visitor attractions, art galleries, garden centres – in fact almost anywhere. Our books appeal to visitors and locals alike, they make great gifts for people who are often difficult to buy for, and are popular with all ages.
Our primary focus is East Anglia, particularly Norfolk and Suffolk, but if you are looking for books for a specific location outside of this area, we can curate a range especially for you from our network of suppliers.
You can view our range on this website. Trade discounts depend on the publisher, but always give you a good return. We have no minimum order value, but we do charge shipping at approximate cost on small orders. You can order online, or by phone or email. Credit accounts are available to most established retailers.
Take a look at this short video to see how we work with one of our customers on the Norfolk Broads:
We hold good stocks of all the titles you find here and aim to ship orders within two working days – usually same or next day. If we have to backorder an item we normally ship what we have in stock with the other items to follow – typically in 7-10 days.
