The business operates through a sales-led go-to-market combining institutional publishing partnerships (co-editions) with academic institutions such as FLACSO, ALAS, Universidad Abierta Interamericana, Instituto Ravignani, and Institut Français Argentina, alongside direct-to-consumer and third-party distribution via the company website, Amazon, Google Books, Librería Hernández in Argentina, and the WorldCat international library network.

Editorial Teseo is privately held with no disclosed parent company, external investors, or institutional capital backing. It is a Crossref member, enabling DOI assignment and academic citation indexing for its publications. The company has no publicly disclosed headcount, revenue, or funding figures, and no management team is identified in the available source material. It maintains an active presence across Facebook, Twitter/X, YouTube, and Instagram, and continues to publish new titles and recurring series in collaboration with its institutional partner network.
