PROFILE |
 |
Anderson News is the covergirl of the magazine wholesale industry. The company (which bought Aramark's magazine distribution operations in 1998) leads the merger-happy industry with about a 40% US market share. Anderson News distributes thousands of magazine titles to about 40,000 outlets, including bookstores, mass merchants, grocery and convenience stores, discount retailers, and just about any other place that sells something to read. The company also distributes newspapers, books, videos, and music. Anderson News was founded in 1917 by CEO Charles Anderson's grandfather; it is still family-owned. The founding Anderson family also runs the #3 US bookstore chain, Books-A-Million.
