Traveling readers of The Washington Post can read the latest hardcopy edition of their favorite newspaper wherever they are in the world. PEPC Worldwide, a European company based in The Netherlands, digitally distributes The Washington Post to its network of interactive newspaper vending machines. International travelers can find these vending machines, marketed as International Newspaper KiOSKS, at international, high-traffic locations such as hotels, airport concourses and convention centers in 24 countries throughout the world.
Based on a ‘distribute-then-print’-model, PEPC (Publishers Electronic Printing Concept) provides newspaper publishers access to a new channel of distribution for their national and international newspapers. PEPC’s seamless distribution method, which utilizes a private multicast satellite network, eliminates geographical barriers and creates time and cost saving opportunities for newspaper publishers.
PEPC’s portfolio of globally available newspapers currently consists of 115 titles from 47 countries. Among the globally available newspapers are US-publications such as the International Herald Tribune, USA Today, The Los Angeles Times, The Atlanta Journal & Constitution, The Miami Herald and The San Francisco Chronicle.
Leading international titles include El Pais (Spain), Mainichi Shimbun (Japan), La Stampa (Italy) and Die Welt (Germany).
“Despite emerging new information technologies, people still value a traditional newspaper that they can hold and carry with them,” states David Dadisman, VP of Circulation of the Washington Post Daily. “By making the Washington Post available through the International Newspaper KiOSK, we are able to address the information needs of our traveling readers anytime and anywhere.”
By distributing the newspapers electronically rather than physically, PEPC is able to offer The Washington Post out-of-market availability on day A,” says Rob Dorpmans, CEO of PEPC Worldwide. “We are very proud to add a worldwide renowned title like The Washington Post Daily to our roster.”
