Introduction Gardners has proudly been involved as an integral link in the book supply chain for over 20 years as Britain’s leading independent wholesaler. Since the company’s acquisition in 1986 by Alan Little and his family, we have gone from strength to strength and our family run company services in excess of 15,000 accounts worldwide. A major part of our success has been our constant investment in innovative technology and our staff. Many of the major developments in book wholesale, supply, and e-commerce have been developed and introduced by Gardners Books, something we are all incredibly proud of and strive to continue. In recent years we have increased our product range to include many other non-book media product ranges. Our book catalogue now includes eBooks and audiobook downloads, and our home entertainment catalogues include DVDs and CDs. From local bookshops to non-traditional outlets, multi-national companies and e-commerce concerns, we specialise in meeting the needs of booksellers and retailers on a global basis. The hub of Gardners is our custom built 350,000 square foot office and distribution centre based in Eastbourne on the south coast. Operating 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, allows us to provide the first class service you require, and more importantly expect, from Gardners. Gardlink History & Development Constantly at the forefront of innovation, Gardners Books was the first wholesaler to realise the benefits that electronic ordering could offer the modern bookseller. Following extensive research and a cutting edge development programme, Gardlink was first released in October 1990. Working closely with independent booksellers to develop the system our focus, as it was in 1990, has always been to offer an efficient, sophisticated bookshop management system. Offering an impressive range of features, including EPoS, stock control, EDI ordering, and real-time internet data feeds, Gardlink truly was designed and developed by the independent bookseller for the independent bookseller. Gardlink 4 continues this legacy with many new and existing facilities and features. Gardlink 4 has been completely re-written and redesigned to include a full EDI suite catering for ordering, goods-in and returns functions electronically, a completely new and intuitive user interface and designed to cater for the very latest technologies in both software and hardware.
