The Toy Company

What The Toy Company does

The Toy Company is a Hong Kong-registered private limited company that designs, sources, manufactures, and supplies toys, sport, and leisure products to European retail buyers. Founded in 1999 as a joint venture between Germany's Wünsche Group (procurement network) and VEDES Group (European toy distribution), the company operates 12 proprietary branded product lines including Spielmaus Wood, Spielmaus Baby, Spielmaus Kitchen, Amia, New Sports, Splash & Fun, Outdoor Active, Creathek, Speedzone, Natural Games, Boogie Bee, and Racer, with a catalog of more than 1,000 SKUs displayed in its Hong Kong showroom. It also acts as an OEM contract manufacturer on behalf of other retail brands. The company's core operational technology is an end-to-end procurement and quality assurance infrastructure: product planning and concept development, in-house design, sourcing through a network of 8 procurement offices across Asia (Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Ningbo, Shanghai, Ho Chi Minh City, Dhaka, Pune, and Karachi), production management, and logistics/shipping coordination, supported by dedicated product safety teams in Hong Kong and inspector teams in China.

The company serves enterprise retail customers, primarily high-profile retailers with European bases operating in the specialist toy trade (Fachhandel) and the non-food sector of grocery retail (Lebensmitteleinzelhandel). Revenue is generated through three streams: sale of own-brand products, OEM contract manufacturing for retail customers, and promotional product sourcing services. Pricing is conducted through direct enterprise consultation rather than published rate cards. Customers rely on TTC for full value-chain execution, customization flexibility, and compliance with European safety, sustainability, and ethical sourcing requirements, which the company addresses through FSC Chain of Custody certification (FSC-C112195), BSCI and ICTI membership, EN 71-aligned product safety practices, and recurring independent laboratory testing by TÜV SÜD, TÜV Rheinland, Bureau Veritas, and SGS.

Go-to-market is conducted through direct enterprise field sales supplemented by channel relationships into European specialist and grocery retail. The company is positioned as one of the 20 largest toy manufacturers in the German market, with 25+ years of continuous operation. The current director is Eric Chiang. The company has 11-50 employees in scope and is privately held with no funding rounds, M&A activity, or public listing disclosed.
