Quarto Group’s New Argentinian Partnership Creates a Spanish-Language Imprint

Quarto Iberoamericana addresses a market of up to 550 million Spanish-language citizens, as distribution channels are arranged to deliver translations.

Catapulta editores was launched in 2001. It was conceived as a publisher of children’s books inspired by a new and multisensory concept regarding learning and entertainment. Offices in Argentina and Spain were opened simultaneously.

Quarto Iberoamericana is a new imprint announced today (April 27) in London by the Quarto Group. It is based in Argentina and has been created in partnership with Catapulta Editores there. 

The partnership, according to news materials from Quarto, “gives Quarto direct access to a publishing market worth approximately US$4 billion with 550 million Spanish speakers worldwide.” 

Similarly, Quarto’s new arrangement with Catapulta is expected to publish “20 books per year with the first six books, launching in the autumn in adult categories such as cooking, lifestyle, and spirituality,” according to press announcements. Other categories are to be chosen as the co-operation grows.”
