About Plenty
We make publications worth picking up.
Plenty Ltd is an independent New Zealand publishing business creating thoughtful, well-made editorial publications.
We bring together the different parts of publishing, from planning and editorial through to writing, design, advertising coordination, production and print. Depending on the project, we can take care of the whole publication or work alongside an existing team to fill the gaps.
We’re small by design, which means projects stay close to the people actually doing the work.
Where it started
Plenty began with Plenty Magazine, an independent publication created in the Bay of Plenty by Sarah Lane and Andy Taylor.
What started as our own publishing project became years of hands-on experience in the realities of making a magazine work: finding and shaping stories, working with writers and photographers, designing for print, managing advertisers, meeting deadlines and getting the finished publication out into the world.
That experience still shapes the way we work today.
What we’re publishing now
Today, Plenty publishes Air Chats, the inflight magazine of Air Chathams.
The project brings together editorial planning, writing, design, advertising, production and print, with each issue built around the people, places and experiences connected by the Air Chathams network.
Looking for a publishing partner?
We’re interested in working with organisations that have something worthwhile to publish and want a small, experienced team to help make it happen.
That might be a magazine, branded publication, special-interest title or another editorial project that needs someone to bring the moving parts together.
Depending on the project, we can help with:
publication planning and direction
editorial development and coordination
writing and interviewing
publication design and layout
advertising coordination
print and production management
digital publication
If you have an idea in mind, we’d be happy to have a conversation.
Who we are
Sarah Lane
Publishing, design + production
Sarah leads the design and production side of Plenty, bringing together editorial content, imagery and the technical detail required to turn a publication into a finished product.
Andy Taylor
Editorial, writing + partnerships
Andy works across editorial, writing and commercial relationships, helping develop stories, shape content and work with the people and organisations involved in each publication.
Together, we’ve spent years on both sides of publishing: creating our own titles and producing publications for others.
