Ruslania Books Corp. - for everyone interested in Russia and Russian culture

About Ruslania

Ruslania.com - whenever you're interested in Russia and Russian culture, or if you're interested in Finnish and Russian language, we're here for you. Wherever you are, in Europe or overseas, we will deliver!

Who we are

Ruslania is one of the largest whole sellers and distributors of Russian books, films, music and periodicals. We are experts in Russian books; both literature and text books for learning.
The company maintains probably the largest sales catalogue of Russian sheet music titles in the world.

Our team is a mixture of young talent and industry veterans, with a passion for books, customer service and international logistics.

Development

Since the market in Finland is limited, Ruslania has been developing its international business strongly in recent years.
The book store has customers in all continents. Thanks to its strategic location in Finland, the company has good sources of Russian literature as well as very quick and reliable deliveries to all countries.

Focus

Ruslania is tightly focused on distributing Russian products. In the selection there are products also in other languages, but each title has something to do with Russia. Thanks to narrow focus, Ruslania can offer very high standard of service to both corporate and private customers interested in Russia and Russian language.

Advantages

The company structure is very simple and there are no high costs for bureaucracy. This can be seen first of all in the pricing. Secondly, Ruslania can offer much more personal service than most of its competitors. Ruslania's customer service is always ready and willing to take telephone calls and to give you the best service.

Feedback

This is the second book I've bought from this seller, and the second time it arrived nearly a month ahead of time from overseas. Beautifully packaged, too. I will have no hesitation purchasing in the future. Thanks!

Russian culture is beautiful. Even I, an American, who has never been to Russia and can’t even speak the language has been enriched by Russian art, film, literature, science, technology, social thought, and so much more. You are doing good work. Even half a world away, probably never knowing any of you or seeing your shop, I am very glad that you exists. May you continue to be people who make the world better.

Thank you very much for everything to all of you. At the moment I am making great progress with the Читаем Пушкина, Капитанская дочка: an excellent manual for my level, together with many others I found in your catalogue. There is nothing in all of Europe or the Usa like your bookshop.
Your grateful customer,

Shostakovich is my favorite composer, and his “Babi Yar” symphony is a really moving song. The facsimile version of his handwritten score is a lifetime treasure. This handwriting brings tears. Thank you so much for this time. I would like to express my sincere gratitude.
Finally, I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the incredible speed from order to delivery.
I'm looking forward to another opportunity (^o^)

I'm really speechless for the attention and the fast delivery you required.
Have a nice day and thank you once again!
