Industry ready to mark 70 years of Toy Fair

Over 250 companies will be exhibiting at London’s Olympia from 23-25 January, all of them playing a part in the 70th anniversary of Toy Fair. PreschoolNews.net chats to just some of them to find out why the show is so important to them and discover what they will be showing in the preschool space.

“Toy Fair is a true milestone in the calendar and kick starts every new business year in style,” begins Neil Montgomery, UK commercial director at Juratoys. “The timing of the show is always so positive. It is a chance to meet retailers old and new and further nurture relations; it’s also such a great platform to showcase all our brands in one space.”

Juratoys is just one of the 250+ companies which will be exhibiting at Toy Fair from 23-25 January, helping the show mark its 70th anniversary. The UK’s largest dedicated toy, game and hobby trade show, Toy Fair will this year run across the Grand, National and Upper West Halls of London’s Olympia.

For Neil and the Juratoys team (stand N2), the show will see the arrival of 12 new launches in the Sweet Cocoon Collection, suitable from 12 months to two years. Hero items include the Activity Leaf with five activities which help to develop fine motor skills; the Multi Activity Board; and the Ant Balance Game. There will also be new launches for Kaloo and Lilliputiens.
