Distribution company, active between 1999 and 2002. Established in July 1999 after renaming Zomba Records for releases under that name.
The old Rough Trade catalogue numbering (starting with RTD) was continued under the new name. Hence, Zomba releases are also starting with the letters RTD, followed by 8 numbers with two dots (e.g. RTD 100.0002.2). All additional numbers on regular releases should be ignored, since they are price codes.
In 2002, Zomba was sold to BMG and Zomba Distribution GmbH was merged with Rough Trade B.V. (Benelux) and Pinnacle to form the "European Independent Distribution Pool" under the roof of BMG distributor arvato as Rough Trade Arvato.
