Our Casemate IPM division started as International Publishers Marketing and had built a very solid reputation as a general trade distributor before it became part of the Casemate Group in 2015. In 2019 Casemate IPM further expanded when we took on the distribution business of Dufour Editions. Within the group, Casemate IPM focuses on general trade titles and represents a very wide range of publishers and subject areas to the North American market including travel, cookery, crafts, transportation, Irish Interest, Scottish interest, poetry, literary fiction, and much more.

Casemate IPM shares back-office systems with the other US based Casemate divisions and has its own dedicated sales and marketing team which is supported by freelance sales teams across the US and beyond.
