I'm Kristy and I started this distro in late 1999 because I felt that there was

I'm a 22 years old girl, i'm studying fashion design in Milan and i've always been into 'zines, art and creative activities. When i first started to be interested in 'zines and the world of diy the biggest problem was having the chance to buy international 'zines 'cause there weren't many distros who provided international expedition. Especially in Europe there were just small distros and it wasn't possible to have many infos about the 'zines they were selling. So i decided to start my own 'zine "kataklisma" and after that i thought it could be a great idea to start a distro to allow european people to buy and sell their 'zines. I accept any kind of 'zine submissions: music related ones, political ones, personal ones, comics, art and photogrpahy related 'zines, and any kind of diy stuff (records, clothing, accessories...).Well, i hope this project will develop a lot...i'm just waiting for you to help me doing it."

att det kan ta lite tid för dig att få det du beställt, eller
att få mail besvarade. Du får helt enkelt ha överseende med detta.
Jag startade det här distrot för jag var lite trött på alla
tråkiga punkdistron som bara hade massa skit som jag inte ville ha. Finns
det något bättre sätt då än att förse sig själv
och andra med det man vill ha? Jag hoppas att du ska gilla Ladies First lika mycket

reasons for starting this distro were desire to do something meaningful and to
make the international zine culture a little more familiar for some people in
Finland. by the way, the word 'kaiho' is finnish and it means 'longing' or 'languishing'

"Essential nutrients is a zine distro from germany. we distribute small press and self-published magazines, the items we distribute include visual art, fiction, rants, poems, true stories or political essays. among others. the aim of this zine distro is to provide a forum for writers, artists and activists to share their work and to make it accessible for an interested public. these expressions, whether it is in a magazine, a piece of art, a poem or a love song are rising out of the do-it-yourself grassroots underground, mainly the punk- and activist-scenes. though we don't want to be limited to these areas. our name - essential nutrients - refers to a song by the british band red monkey, and talks about the importance of ideas, words and inspiration in (my) daily life. that creativity is an essential nutrient. doing a zine distro is not a marketing scheme, but it is not necessarily a revolutionary tool either. we know that we won't change the world by publishing zines. our vision is to build an inclusive community where the sharing of ideas, where communication and a dedication to radical and progressive social change is imminent in our thoughts and actions. this is not an easy thing to accomplish. let's start. if you are interested in finding distribution for your zine, please get in touch. you can ask for a mailing address. if you look at the catalogue, you can get an idea of what we are interested in and if it makes sense to offer your zine. thanks for your time!

This Chilean periodical, El Libertario, is inspired by anarchist ideals. The creators of this periodical also have a distro in which they sell anarcho-punk and other DIY stuff from Chile.
"El Libertario es un periódico inspirado en el ideal antiautoritario del anarquismo. Desde 1995, es editado por la Comisión de Relaciones Anarquistas (CRA-AIT), un colectivo que trata de informar sobre la teoría y práctica de los ácratas en América latina y potenciar lo que de libertario tengan los movimientos sociales de nuestro entorno...La autogestión económica permite a las publicaciones alternativas total autonomía política. El Libertario se financia de la venta de sus ejemplares y de otros materiales producto del intercambio y del apoyo mutuo. Apoya nuestra prensa alternativa adquiriendo estos materiales."

Anti-Civ Distro
(México) |
This Distro is from Mexico and distributes fanzines, t-shirts, music, pins and other stuff all in support of the anti-authoritarian ideals of the primitive anarchist movement.
"Este proyecto nace con la idea de difundir mas el ideal del anarco-primitivismo dentro del movimiento antiautoritario y por la necesidad de unir por medio de la literatura y el pensamiento la lucha global contra el capital.
Pensamos que es necesario buscar alternativas al ideal anarquista y renovarlo con las nuevas ideas
libertarias y de lucha contra toda forma de opresión humana animal y medio ambiental pues formamos parte de un todo y el capital lo asesina todo.
Estamos interesados en distribuir todo el material libertario que comparta nuestras ideas, escríbenos y nos ponemos en contacto.
¡si el capital asesina todo! ¡nosotros asesinemos al capital!" Quoted from Anti-Civ Distro.
