Chantilly, June 5, 2025: Aptara has announced a partnership with Repro Books, a leading India-based printing company with a global print and distribution network. This collaboration will provide publishing clients with a single source from pre-submission through print and distribution, and enable zero-inventory product management.

The shift to Open Access and disruption caused by AI-generated content are forcing publishers to find greater cost savings while streamlining vendor management. In response, Aptara has expanded its SciPRisTM publishing ecosystem to be more truly end-to-end, encompassing pre-submission integrity checks, peer review, alt-text creation, editing, composition, APC collections, and now print fulfilment. At the same time, this collaboration enables Repro Books to offer the upstream services their clients need to create print- and web-ready content ahead of print.

Samir Kakar, President of Aptara, said, “Repro Books has an outstanding reputation for high quality printing and superior customer satisfaction. This partnership will provide our customers with an efficient and seamless global network for print and distribution, while centralizing communications with Aptara. We are excited to showcase what Repro Books can do for our customers.”

Romi Vohra, Managing Director of Repro Books, stated: “This partnership between Repro and Aptara is a testament to our commitment to providing an integrated ecosystem for publishers and content creators. Our collaboration is a strategic step forward, aligning Aptara’s full-service content production platform with our Print-on-Demand (POD) technology. POD serves as an efficient and eco-friendly, just-in-time (JIT) supply chain that fulfills demand in real time. Together with Aptara, we aim to redefine how books and content are accessed and delivered in the digital age.”
