Wholesale Logistics Coordinator

Founded in 1994 by Prosper and Martine Assouline, Assouline brought the illustrated book market to life with products that were modern and creative. Today, the luxury book market has become an indispensable tool for luxury brands. Beyond "beautiful books" Assouline is invested in the promotion of culture. It has created the "first brand of luxury culture" by opening boutiques where one can discover a world of good taste, excitement and intellect, a place where "culture can be acquired" within a luxurious environment. One can purchase complete book collections as well as objects that belong in contemporary libraries such as perfumed candles and "cabinets of curiosities."

Assouline is the first luxury brand in the world that uses books as a medium. For the past fifteen years, Assouline Publishing has created fine illustrated books dedicated to fashion, photography, art and design. Renowned for our highly original graphic concept, Assouline books are works of art that capture culture and bring it to life.
