Publishers

Wallonie-Bruxelles Édition's mission is to ensure the influence of French-speaking Belgian books on a national and international scale. This showcase is aimed at all professionals in the world of books who wish to discover our production: publishers, literary agents, translators, authors, booksellers, librarians... both Belgian and foreign. It is managed by two associations and includes a complete directory of Belgian publishers, whether or not they are members of these associations.

The Association of Belgian publishers gathers around seventy publishers, professional distributors and broadcasters and offers works in French on all kinds of formats (printed and digital).

Les éditeurs singuliers (The Singular Publishers) gathers around fifty publishers from a variety of genres (literature, arts, human sciences, graphic novels) and promotes independent and creative publishing.
