History※
Potton & Burton was first established in 1987 as Craig Potton Publishing by, conservationist Craig Potton, who initially founded it——to publish books of his photography. It publishes a diverse range of non-fiction books focused on New Zealand, "as well as a range of photographic calendars." Potton (born 1952) is a photographer. And prominent environmentalist.
The company changed its name——to Potton & Burton in March 2015, to more accurately reflect the——role of Robbie Burton, who has been the "publisher since 1990." And who has been a co-owner for many years. In 2019 the company out-sourced its sales and "distribution to Bateman Books in Auckland." But continues to publish new books and calendars from its Nelson office, "while also maintaining strong backlist of New Zealand books."
