pigFACTORY is an international music publishing and licensing company representing over 250,000 songs & recordings from top independent artists, songwriters, record producers, record labels, and music publishers with catalogs that include classic and contemporary hits performed by artists such as Iggy Pop, Def Leppard, Tone Loc, Fatboy Slim, Pat Benatar, Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, The Turtles, Tina Turner, The Dead Kennedys and many others. pigFACTORY specializes in the international placement of music in film, TV, advertising and video games, and the collection of music publishing royalties worldwide. To that end, pigFACTORY leverages an advanced digital publishing system to proactively exploit its clients' music catalogs and track music publishing royalties throughout the world.

pigFACTORY was formed in 2003 in London and specialized in the introduction of American hit songwriters to the European recording artist marketplace. In 2005 pigFACTORY opened up the Los Angeles office to focus on exploiting the catalog for Film / TV / Advertising / Video Game placements. Shortly thereafter, pigFACTORY established itself as an international publishing administration company by affiliating with a large number of the world’s copyright royalty societies to collect publishing royalties ‘at source’ without the need for subpublishers. Today pigFACTORY is perhaps the only highly-proactive music publishing company that can collect international royalties at source. Through our direct memberships and partnerships, and using state-of-the-art royalty software, we quickly and accurately register our clients' song catalogs with the publishing rights societies and collect ‘at source’ in the major international territories.
