Why use Progressive Preschool magazine?
The answer to this question is pretty simple – we can ensure your products and
your brand are seen by not only the retailers who know you; but those who don’t.
Retailers now look to diversify in the products and ranges they choose to stock
– this is where we come in!
Nursery product suppliers will benefit from being in front of not only nursery retailers, but toy,
gift, apparel and book retailers. Making Progressive Preschool Magazine the obvious choice for
your UK trade marketing campaign.
As the only cross-category trade publication covering the preschool sector, Progressive
Preschool Magazine is sent to a circulation of 10, 849 readers each issue and reaches a wide
variety of retailers in the UK – independent retailers, multiple retailers, department stores, major
supermarkets, online retailers, wholesalers, distributors, mail order groups and buying groups.
On top of this we also have a European database of distributors and retailers in mainland
Europe which we send the September issue to, to coincide with our comprehensive preview to
Kind + Jugend.

Don’t just take our word for it though….
“We’ve been using PPS for
over 2 years, and have to say they are
fantastic to work with. The team are always happy to
suggest fresh ideas, and have shared our companies vision
for growth. I can honestly say that anyone who considers
Progressive Preschool “just another magazine to advertise in”
really hasn’t properly met Rob, Jo and Jacqui, or is simply
misguided. A dynamic team and a must have partner for any
company looking to grow in the Nursery sector.”
Nick Hampton, Ardega Nursery Distrbution

"As a buyer,
Progressive Preschool is
good for understanding
factors outside of purely toys
that are influencing parents
purchase decisions and preschoolers
lives. Having a magazine that solely
covers my target age group is a
perk that many of my fellow
buyers don’t have."
Chris Watters,
Argos

“We had a
great response from
the advert we placed in PPS
with retailers ringing us off the
back of the advert – we have
now committed further to the
magazine because of this!”
Gemma Stokes,
Skip Hop UK

“Progressive Preschool for
me is the best magazine in the industry!
Working in a small buying team we manage over
1200 products, 100 supplier relationships and two
season change overs per year- as you can imagine its
difficult to keep up with trends and newness. That’s where
PPS helps us out immensely! It is jam packed filled with
industry news, what’s new, up and coming brands all of
which are fragmented down into product areas making it
an easy and inspiring read. Big hands up to PPS!”
Jade Crow, JoJo Maman Bebe
