BOARD GAME MAKER CEPHALOFAIR FINDS THE PERFECT SHIPPING PARTNER WITH UPS

01-04-2024 1 MIN READ
Frosthaven fans rejoice as their 30-pound board game arrives in a brown delivery
truck


Meet Cephalofair Games – a crowdfunded board game company with a global fan
base. Their team creates and distributes top-rated games, including the wildly
successful Gloomhaven and Frosthaven. If you’re a fan of epic strategy gaming,
this story is for you.

The adventure begins: When Cephalofair Games created Frosthaven, it was an
unprecedented release for a lot of reasons. The box had more content, more
pieces and more story than just about any other board game around. And it was
heavy – over 30 pounds. Getting the breakout hit into the hands of gamers around
the world needed the right shipping partner. That’s why they chose UPS.

A large-scale fulfillment project: Our global infrastructure and expertise meant
that we were the right partner to manage the entire process – from ocean freight
to final-mile delivery and powered by Ware2Go’s on-demand fulfillment and
warehousing.

To deliver on their promise to over 83,000 backers, Cephalofair worked with us
to get over 100 shipping containers on the water and deliver 62,000 game boxes
to eager fans around the world.

“This is really going to provide us the ability to flex our muscles on the next
project and not have to worry about what our logistical infrastructure looks
like,” said Price Johnson, Chief Operating Officer of Cephalofair Games. “This
is really going to open up doors for us as a publisher.”

Go behind the scenes on our partnership with Cephalofair and see how we get a
30-pound behemoth of a game to its fans:

“Being connected to the UPS network lets us tap into resources that customers
like Cephalofair Games wouldn't otherwise have access to,” said Charles
Robertson, manager of supply chain execution at Ware2Go. “We can manage their
end-to-end supply chain so they can focus on making the best product possible.”
