1. Find exclusive records!

Diggers Factory is not a classic shop. We promote a smarter production and distribution model to offer you exclusive records and a new way to support artists! We manage everything, hand-in-hand with the artist and use just-in-time production system.

At Diggers Factory, we believe everyone should be able to produce vinyl! That is why you will find 2 types of records in our shop: Funding Projects and Limited Editions.

2. About Funding Projects

Funding Projects are records produced by the community through pre-orders. As a Digger, you pre-order the records you like. Then, if the artists gather enough pre-orders, the pressing is launched. If not, the project is canceled and you are entirely refunded!

So artists have no upfront costs, no unsold records, no stock and no waste of products! Find out more.

3. About Limited Editions

Limited editions are very exclusive records our team selected. We choose artists and labels we want to work with and produce with them beautiful and exclusive records for you.

Reissues, new albums, soundtracks, the projects are various and made with the best factories! Find out more.

1. Create your project

Customize everything (size, weight, colors...), upload your artwork and your tracks. Then choose your pressing objective, how many records you think you can sell (50 copies minimum) and choose a price. We’re here to advise you on these steps. Diggers Factory will take a fee on your sales, only if your project is a success.

2. Engage your community

Share your project with your community. People can listen to your music and pre-order your record. At the end of the campaign, if you reach your objective of pre-orders, we launch the pressing. It’s risk free! If you don’t reach the objective, we cancel the project and refund everyone.

3. Sell in record shops

Distribute your records worldwide thanks to our network of hundreds shops around the world. Like your fans, they can pre-order the record at wholesale prices to reach your selling objective faster. New York, Paris, London, Tokyo, distribute your records worldwide!

1. Who are we?

We started Diggers Factory back in 2015 and launched the first version of the website in 2016. We are 2 friends, Victor and Alexis, who met at the University in France and are both passionate about music and vinyl thanks to our parents. Now we are 10 in the team thanks to the community and artists we support from the beginning!

2. Why Diggers Factory?

When an artist wants to produce records there are always 3 issues:

Records are expensive to produce so it’s a risky product
There is no tool to forecast the demand which leads to overproduction, waste and stock
There are too many partners for the pressing, fulfillment, distribution: it’s difficult to find the best partners

3. How to solve this?

With the vinyl on demand service, we solve these issues by creating a funding project. As an artist, you gather pre-orders and if you have enough pre-orders, Diggers Factory manages the pressing and the shipping to the fans. Thanks to the pre-orders, you have the money before the pressing, you know exactly how many records you need to produce and we offer you the best partners.
