Strategic partnership between MENDO and teNeues

It’s official: MENDO and teNeues will be publishing books together. A selection of the books that MENDO initiates and designs, will be produced, distributed and sold internationally by teNeues.  For the first half of 2018 four publications are already scheduled: Streets of New York, This is Not a F*cking Street Style Book, #SENDNUDES, and Streets of London.

Collaborating isn’t new to teNeues and MENDO: a good part of  the German publishers collection can already be found in the MENDO flagship store and in MENDO’s webshop. “We already know each other thoroughly and that’s why we can rely on each other now that our collaboration has evolved into a strategic partnership,” says MENDO’s Roy Rietstap.

Hendrik teNeues: “This year, we began to develop our first titles with the renowned Dutch bookstore, MENDO. This collaboration has now evolved into a strategic partnership, together producing books that reflect both of our brands, appealing to an urban, youthful audience. The first four titles are now available for pre-order: #SENDNUDES, This is Not a F*cking Street Style Book, Streets of New York, and Streets of London.”

MENDO’s Gunifort Uwambaga: “With graphic design running through our veins and 15 years of experience as a bookstore, creating jaw-dropping books is what comes naturally. It’s an understatement is we say the stack of books Made by MENDO is growing rapidly. That’s why we’re so excited about this partnership with teNeues. While we focus on what we do best – initiating, creating and designing books – teNeues makes sure our carefully created products find their way to book aficionados in over 70 countries in the world.”
