Sponsorsed.  With the launch of Quartermaster Direct [QMD], Quartermaster Logistics expands its reach to include consolidation services, which offers retailers and distributors a chance to purchase from many different publishers all under one banner.  QMD will focus on assisting publishers to sell into the worldwide wholesale distribution market through sales direct to distributors and retail stores.

Matt Goldrick, Sr Director of Sales and Development at Quartermaster Logistics, announces, "Our plan is to leverage our broad variety of publisher clients and their products to provide retailers with a wide selection of options.  Whether they’re ordering our clients’ products directly from distributors, or from our site directly to their store, we want to provide as many opportunities as possible for them to take direct control of their inventory.  After all, no one knows better what their customers want than a local game store owner."

James Takenaka, Director of Sales for Quartermaster Direct, says, "We expect what we’re building at Quartermaster Direct to become a major service for publishers to distribute their product globally and to be an essential vendor for distributors and retailers to acquire new tabletop gaming products.  Publishers benefit from working with QMD by immediately expanding their worldwide distribution network, which might take years to build on their own, and instead gain the time to focus on game design, production, marketing, and promotion, the fun stuff, while we take care of the boring stuff - sales, invoicing, shipping, and accounts receivable"

James explains, "QMD will provide retailers and distributors with a convenient “one stop shop” of wholesale services where they can gain access to hundreds of games from independent publishers all under one account, order as few as 1 copy of a game, and have reorders fulfilled in a timely manner.

With QML's impressive infrastructure, we have the opportunity for an exciting product catalog and an ability to deliver products through all sales channels for our clients.  Our long term focus will be to expand by adding more international publishers and distributors to our business, and we are excited to continue that progression."


Quartermaster Direct’s list of Distributor clients is extensive, and continues to grow.  Distributors such as Alliance, ACD, GTS, Southern Hobby, Universal, Asmodee UK/Esdevium, Spiral Galaxy, ADC Blackfire, Brave New World, Fun Supply, Frontdepot, Intrafin, Let’s Play Games, and VR Distribution are already on board.

The list of Publishers signed with QMD is ever-expanding, already including Erika Svanoe Games, Talon Strikes Studios , Cherry Picked Games, Axe N Shield, DPH Games, One Up Parties and Games, Origami Whale, Megacorpin, Cardboard Dynamo, Mariucci Designs, Cation Arts Studios, Tau Leader Games, B.A. Games, Cogito Ergo Meeple, Mariposa Games, Dranda Games, Unique Games, Gray Wolf Games, Mega Mint Games, Mythopoeia, Lemery Games, Last Night Games, and Wonderbow Games.
