Without a doubt, importing toys is a profitable business considering that its demand is constant and China is the origin of imports of these products.
IMPORTING TOYS FROM CHINA:
Although importing toys is not easy, the key to success is preparing in advance to find suppliers that offer us the diversity and the ideal price for our objective.
TOY MANUFACTURERS AND SUPPLIERS IN CHINA:
The toy manufacturing area par excellence is Chenghai; by going to suppliers in this area, the chances of working with reliable manufacturers in terms of quality, competitive prices and the necessary licenses increase.
We know that 70% of the success of an import lies in the selection of the supplier, which is why we recommend you check out our SUPPLIER SOURCING service.
TOY FAIRS IN CHINA:
Attending fairs is always a good idea to explore new trends. If you want to know more about this sector, we recommend attending any of the following options, and what better than with our support:
- China Chenghai International Toys & Gifts Fair (CCITF).
- HKTDC Hong Kong Toys & Games Fair.
- China Toy Expo.
REQUIREMENTS TO IMPORT TOYS FROM CHINA:
One of the biggest complications when importing toys from China is the certifications, since depending on the country different standards must be met. For example, in the European Union they must comply with the Toy Safety Directive (EN 71-1, 2, 3) and have the CE mark; in Argentina they are governed by GMC Res. No. 23/04. Pay attention to this!
BEST-SELLING TOYS:
- Dolls that cry tears.
- Car tracks with LED lights that glow in the dark.
- Toys that favour motor and sensory development.
- Legos.
- Beach sets.
CONCLUSION
Importing toys is an opportunity to analyse; we suggest that when sourcing suppliers, you make a sheet listing all the requirements and look for the suppliers in relation to it. Remember that China, having a totally different culture from ours, a YES from the supplier in most cases simply means a MAYBE. If you need help, you can contact us.
