ABOUT US

In a fast paced industry where information, time and money equal profits, EDM Publications offers solutions for the busy executive. Our cutting edge newsletters on

Sporting Goods

Outdoor

Footwear

Eyewear

give a clear vision of these international markets with standout features and benefits:

We deliver pure, condensed information--only 6 to 8 pages without advertising. They slip easily into briefcases or pockets to be read on the train or between meetings.

We focus on Europe, on global players and on interesting case studies. We provide hard-to-get information on the major retailers, buying groups, and suppliers operating in any of the European countries, as well as overseas. We cover corporate development strategies, management and distribution changes, changes in production and sourcing, investments, mergers and acquisitions, financial results, market statistics, foreign trade issues, unusual merchandising and marketing action, trade fairs, and legal cases. We rarely report on new products, leaving this job to more generalized trade magazines.

We provide exclusive information from relationships built over time by professional reporters who contact the decision-makers you want to know about. This information gives you a competitive edge. Our specific information goes deeper than the press releases in generic newspapers and on the internet. We provide a more integrated look at the European market, as opposed to the cumbersome, national focus of trade magazines.

We can send our newsletters by e-mail, making them easy to retrieve on laptops, as well as from remote locations.

We run an up-to-date hotline, exclusively for subscribers. You can call us to obtain information from our archives, tips for recruitment or business opportunities, or customized information for specific needs.

We offer free executive-oriented classified ads to look for financial partners, for an important new challenge in the industry or for top executives, distributors, agents, etc. These advertisements are printed in our newsletter and can now be posted for a longer time on our website.

Eugenio Di Maria leads EDM Publications. A multi-lingual journalist with over 30 years of experience in Europe and the US with the New York Times, Associated Press, Fairchild Publications, as well as his own company, he has put together a team of professional reporters who have well-earned trust with the decision-makers at the highest levels.

Here are our four business newsletters, with their respective frequencies and the languages in which they are published:

Sporting Goods Intelligence – 40 issues a year in English (translation of important articles into Italian is available on request)
The Outdoor Industry Compass - 25 issues a year in English
Shoe Intelligence – 24 issues a year in English
Eyewear Intelligence – 15 issues a year in English

We publish our newsletters in English, the international language of business. We have no set publishing dates. We publish a newsletter when we have sufficient important news to report to you because we aren’t at the mercy of advertisers. We also invite you to check our website for important news flashes that we will develop further in the following newsletter.

We also offer an unconditional GUARANTEE: if at they time you feel that you are not getting the expected return on this small investment, you may cancel your subscription and request a full refund for all the issues that have yet to be mailed out to you.
