Grupo Nelson has announced a partnership with Editorial Océano for mass distribution of its titles for the general trade market in Spanish-speaking countries in South America.

The agreement will place Grupo Nelson books for distribution in Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Ecuador, Peru, Colombia, Venezuela and Panama, company officials said.

For the past nine months, Grupo Nelson and Océano had a similar partnership in place in Mexico. "We believe that this will not only replicate but exceed the efforts in Mexico," said Larry Downs, vice president and publisher for Grupo Nelson.

The Spanish division of Thomas Nelson recently announced an agreement with RBA Editorial Group in Spain, which will take popular authors such as John Maxwell and Stephen Covey to the general market in that country.
