PROFILE |

Picking the hits is risky business. "Rackjobber" Handleman Company chooses the tunes that go in customers' racks.

Primarily servicing in-store music racks in the US, the company's Handleman Entertainment Resources unit also distributes from Brazil, Canada, Mexico, and the UK. Handleman's North Coast Entertainment division holds the rights to distribute pre-recorded music, videos, and DVDs through Anchor Bay Entertainment, The itsy bitsy Entertainment Company (75%-owned, markets "Teletubbies" products), and Madacy Entertainment (80%-owned).
