An AMS spokesman estimated last month that the total price could come to $76 million. The company is among the top book distributors in the country, putting best-sellers on the shelves of such chains as Wal-Mart , Costco and Target.
But as that story plays out, so does the fate of AMS, now officially in the hands of aker & Taylor after court approval of the $76 million dollar sale. PW Daily reported yesterday that Baker & Taylor has created Baker & Taylor Marketing Services and, beginning Monday, resumed shipping new titles to the warehouse clubs. The purchase, which also includes UK and Mexico assets, involves a range of assets used by AMS to sell bestsellers and other books into the membership warehouse clubs.
Baker & Taylors's new subsidiary Baker & Taylor Marketing Services will be the new entity in control of MKTS!!!
