The Rise of Tech in the World of Toy Making |
|
The worldwide mega-trend is to integrate electronics and new technology with toys. Many dolls and toy robots can now be remote-controlled by an Android or iOS device and updated with apps to create additional and new playing possibilities. At the same time, toys incorporating virtual and augmented reality are expected to be big hits. Embark on a tour of inspiration to explore the wide array of tech-based toys and baby products available at the fairs that enhance play experience and facilitate smart parenting! |

“Established in 2008, our company started out as a manufacturer of robotic components. We began to produce DIY robot kits in 2014 and sell our products in 2015. Currently, Southeast Asia and the US are our major export markets. This is our first year at the Hong Kong Toys & Games Fair. The fair provides a good opportunity for us to understand the market needs and sales channels especially in the Asian market, connect with buyers in this region and learn from our counterparts. We receive a lot of enquiries from buyers who are interested in our DIY robot kits especially the Antbo model which is designed for children aged 6 or above. We are happy with the results so far.”
Lola Lou, Manager, Business Development Department, Zhiwei Robotics Corp., the Chinese mainland (Booth: 1C-F26) |

“Enterbay is famous for producing highly detailed collectible figurines with our multi-layer paint application. Our main markets include Southeast Asia and the US. In the past, we only produced 1/6 figurines, but this year we have launched 1/9 figurines which are more affordable and of good quality. We see a lot of business opportunities in our newly launched 1/9 figurines. We have exhibited at the Hong Kong Toys & Games Fair for the first time to promote both our 1/6 and 1/9 collectible figurines because it is a huge show where we can meet with different buyers and expand our sales and distribution channels. We expect good results at the fair.”

“Malis is a toy importer which runs a B2B online store in Poland, with hypermarkets and retailers being our customers. We import four to five containers of toys every month. This is my third time visiting the Hong Kong Toys & Games Fair to look for new items and new ideas and to see the latest trends. At this year’s fair, I have found some innovative products such as educational toys that play with smart devices, 3D pens and DIY paper houses. I’ll show samples to my customers and place orders after the fair. The order size for my initial order will be 200-2,000 pieces per item. The Hong Kong Toys & Games Fair is the best toys fair in the world because it brings together many suppliers and a great variety of toys from plastic, wooden to plush toys.”
Bartosz Machonski, President, Malis, Poland |

“Greenbean is a premier supplier of learning resources in South Africa. We have our own brand and also distribute famous brands. This is my fourth-time visit to the Hong Kong Toys & Games Fair. I like the fair because many of the top brands are exhibiting here. It’s convenient to come here because no visa is required for South Africans. At this year’s fair, I am looking for new brands and OEM manufacturers while meeting my existing suppliers. On the first day of the fair, I have found a potential supplier of wooden toys and STEM toys. STEM toys are gaining traction in South Africa because they are new concepts and form part of the curriculum in schools. We’ll buy more STEM toys.”
Ryan Bishop, Accounts & Sales Director, Greenbean Learning Resources, South Africa |

“In business since 1958, Binatone is the official licensee of Motorola mobility products ranging from baby monitors to car accessories, Bluetooth headsets, home monitors and pet accessories. We are the top player in the supply of baby monitors across the globe. Binatone has been participating in Hong Kong Baby Products Fair since 2012 to fuel expansion, particularly in the Asia Pacific market. We are introducing our smart nursery series at the fair this year. The app-based interactive system enables parents to monitor their child and nursery from anywhere anytime, complete with smart analytics and baby care functions. The feedback in the first day of exhibition has been positive. We’ve met with both new and existing customers from Japan, Sweden, Russia and the Middle East. Some distributors from Singapore, Thailand and Malaysia will visit us in the next couple of days. This fair attracts a number of good quality buyers specialising in the baby-related business. The results have been encouraging. A Japanese buyer with whom we successfully developed business at last year came again to expand business relationship. This is a great place to promote new products and enhance relationships with customers worldwide.”
Joey Cheung, Sales Director – Asia Pacific, Binatone Electronics International Ltd, Hong Kong (Booth: 3F-D04) |

“Founded in 2009, Spa Formula specialises in the production of licensed confectionery items for babies and kids. We are the official licensee of Peppa Pig, Disneyland and Minion. This is our second-year presence at Hong Kong Baby Products Fair to introduce our biscuits, candies and confectionery products. The new Minion series is one of the highlights on display. Buyers have expressed keen interest in our offerings. We’ve encountered more Chinese mainland buyers this year. Some buyers from Thailand, India and Vietnam also came to us in the first day. We are quite positive about establishing cooperation with two new customers from India and Vietnam for the distribution of our licensed items. Last year, we found two distributors from Singapore and Thailand to make entry into the two markets. We’ve also listed our products on HKTDC’s website and it successfully generated new business as a result. This fair has been well organised, featuring everything under one roof. The concurrent Hong Kong Toys & Games Fair and Hong Kong International Licensing Show make it even better as a diversity of buyers get together to explore cross-over business collaboration. It’s excellent to hold the fair at the start of the year. The timing is perfect and this is an annual event we will not miss.”

“Nina is a manufacturer of textile products for babies in India. For business expansion, we are extending our product categories to cover more baby-related items such as bouncers, walkers, highchairs and strollers. That's why we are visiting Hong Kong Baby Products Fair for the first time to source products to fuel growth. So far, we’ve found a potential supplier of highchairs from the Chinese mainland. We are still searching around for more interesting products and new suppliers. This is really a good show with a diversity of quality exhibitors and an amazing mix of baby products. Further negotiation will be held to conclude deals. Initial orders are estimated at about US$25,000 to US$30,000. This fair is a wonderful sourcing platform for everyone. We will definitely come again next year.”

“In business for about 9 years, our company is a major shopping mall operator specialising in the sale of products for babies and kids. We currently operate two malls in the city centre of Dalian, providing a comprehensive range of products for newborn babies and kids up to the age of 16. I am visiting Hong Kong Baby Products Fair for the second year. It proved to be another rewarding journey. I have identified several potential suppliers for a selection of nursery items, baby safety products, bouncers and diapers. I am particularly interested in a mix of appealing nursery sets offered by a Hong Kong exhibitor and a smart diaper product developed by a Dongguan-based supplier from the Chinese mainland that can monitor whether or not the diaper is wet enough to justify changing it. I am very keen to establish business relationships with them. Further discussions will be conducted to foster cooperation. This fair has very strong appeal to the industry. Everything has been so nicely done to enable that all of us can source and do business in a comfortable environment.”
He Chuan Rong, General Manager, Daxuanao Kids Department Store, Chinese mainland |
