IGPS Logistics Speeds Up Delivery of Highly Detailed Hachette Model Cars to Collectors

Orlando, FL – October 26, 2023 – IGPS Logistics LLC, a leading provider of end-to-end logistics solutions, is thrilled to announce its partnership with Hachette Partworks to streamline the distribution of their incredibly popular Hachette model car collections to enthusiasts across the United States. These aren’t your typical toy cars; Hachette Partworks creates painstakingly detailed, die-cast collectible models – often iconic vehicles – delivered in weekly parts, allowing collectors to build their dream cars piece by piece. And getting those tiny, precious parts safely and quickly to collectors is where IGPS Logistics shines. For Hachette Partworks, a division of Hachette Livre, one of the world’s largest publishing groups, getting these kits delivered on time and in perfect condition is critical. Each weekly delivery forms a key part of the building process, and missing or damaged parts can be a real headache for collectors. That's why they chose IGPS Logistics. “We were looking for a logistics partner who really understood the needs of direct-to-consumer, subscription-based deliveries,” says a representative from Hachette Partworks. “These aren’t just packages; they're pieces of a hobby, a passion. IGPS has proven they can handle that delicate nature with care and efficiency.” What Makes Hachette Model Cars Special? Let's be real, there are a lot of model cars out there. But Hachette sets itself apart. These aren’t just pre-assembled cars you pull out of a box. They come in weekly installments, each containing a few parts and a detailed magazine explaining the build process. This means collectors actually build their model cars, learning about the real vehicle's history and engineering along the way. Think classic muscle cars like the Ford Mustang, iconic sports cars like the Porsche 911, or even legendary Formula 1 racing machines. Hachette covers a huge range of vehicles, and each model is incredibly detailed, right down to the interior, engine, and even the tiny screws and bolts. “It’s really a unique collecting experience,” explains avid Hachette collector, Mark Johnson. “It’s not just about owning a cool model; it’s about the journey of building it. And getting those parts reliably each week is a big part of that experience.” IGPS Logistics: Keeping the Parts Rolling That’s where IGPS Logistics comes in.
