Project introduction:
A Polish company that produces games and toys is looking for distributors and manufacturers of "Shadow Theatre" toys overseas. The cooperation mode is distribution service and manufacturing license agreement.
The company was established in early 2021. Its mission is to combine education and entertainment, which are essential for children, to create new forms of books, to cultivate children's creativity and show them another way of learning, so as to improve the quality and diversity of children's books.
The company combines traditional stories of children with cut illustrations, develops learning packages about space, dinosaurs, animals and humans, and combines educational materials with separate laser cutting additional visual materials. The company's value is high quality, safety for children and care for the environment. That's why the materials used in the products not only comply with Directive 2009/48/EC (Safe Toys), but also ha ve many other certificates, such as FSC, hea vy metal compliance, REACH compliance, and they are biodegradable and recyclable.
The company produces theater sets and specializes in making props for shadow play. A set includes a book and eight illustrations of the book cut by laser. The company's main idea is to combine written words with separate visual effects.
The novelty of this project is that illustrations are separated from books and present their own works of art. The next notable feature is that these illustrations look better when the lights are turned off and the flashlight is turned on. In order to get good products and observe the shadow theater at home, it is necessary to turn on the flashlight, turn off the lights and guide the light of the flashlight to the illustrations so that they can cast shadows on the wall. These suits are designed for children aged 3-7.
The main distribution channel is the internet. The company designs products in its own name. A team of designers and managers is responsible for managing every step from conception to finished product.
This Polish company is looking for partners who are interested in localizing such suits and producing them under license. Partners will promote the company and its products in specialty stores, department stores, the Internet and their online stores.
The company intends to open up new markets and improve brand awareness outside Poland, and can provide distribution agreements and production licensing agreements.
