Website: https://toyfairny.com/
The American International Toy Fair is one of the largest toy fairs in the world, held annually in Oct. at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.

The New York International Toy Fair is the largest toy fair in the Western Hemisphere and one of the three largest toy fairs in the world. It is held once a year and has been held for over a hundred times so far.
North America has a wide geographical area and a developed economy. Although the market is oriented toward the world, it lacks productivity and only has a single arm of brand power. However, in the past two years, its overall brand power has become increasingly mature, leading to many brands opening companies, exhibitions, and exhibitions there. The market has become mature, but its market is more focused on North America, making it difficult to radiate and lean towards the world, with strong regional characteristics. Therefore, participating in the American International Toy Fair is aimed at the world’s largest consumer market and will play a huge driving role in expanding the North American market for exhibitors

The Tokyo Toy Show market in Japan is mainly biased towards the global market, but in recent years, due to various reasons, it has become a local exhibition, forming a market for local brands to enter the local market. However, Japan has globally renowned toy brands such as Bandai and TAKARA TOMY, and the market for product innovation cannot be ignored.
