About IPC Media - Marketforce

Marketforce

Marketforce is the UK's market-leading magazine distribution company.

In addition to the IPC portfolio, Marketforce provides a full range of services for a growing list of titles published by 35 'blue-chip' independent companies – they include Hachette Filipacchi, Marshall Cavendish, Reed Business Information, Future Publishing and Archant Media .

Critically important to our magazine business, Marketforce ensures that IPC's titles are on sale in the right place at the right time.

Focusing on distribution management and business development at wholesale, the Marketforce sales force are the most experienced and influential in the industry. They work alongside over 100 part-time retail merchandisers, who make regular calls to supermarkets and key retailers on a tactical basis.

More than 50 per cent of the company's retail sales are achieved through the supermarket groups and major multiples. A dedicated National Accounts team deals at head office level with large retail multiple groups, meeting regularly to discuss and implement range reviews, display positions and forward planning.

Marketforce also exports magazines worldwide, supplying 180 titles to 97 countries.
