ABOUT US — Our culture Macmillan Distribution (MDL) has a long history as part of the Macmillan Publishing Group and from this comes a wealth of experience and knowledge in our people. In 2017/18 MDL embarked on an internal change programme under the leadership of Guy Browning, Managing Director. This programme provided an opportunity to re-purpose areas of the business and take an in-depth look at our culture and processes, to ensure that alongside our heritage and experience, the business is structured and positioned to cope with the full demands of the modern publishing and retail supply chains. We are extremely proud of the results of this work which, in 2020, has reinforced our position as an industry leading distribution business with first class operational and services teams.
