LONDON – To date, practically all merchandise ranging from running shoes to bed sheets, rings to clocks, shower curtains to stuffed animals, among others, can be licensed. Character licensing captured the bulk share of the world licensed merchandise industry in the recent past. The licensed character toy category, specifically Hollywood Action Figures, has been the most essential driver of sales. Licensing plays an important role in boosting sales and launches of novel products within the overall toys industry.

The USA is the birthplace of a great many international licenses and is the largest market for licensed toys globally. Europe is the world’s 2-nd biggest licensed toy regional market. APAC is making up leeway by being home to 7 out of the 10 leading most heavily licensed traditional toys and markets from pole to pole.

The licensed toys and licensed merchandise market has been gaining momentum, with the sales in the sector mostly driven primarily by elevated demand from emerging marketplaces, hike in expenditures on toys by children as well as the release of blockbusters, particularly Hollywood films. The market has also witnessed the action figure category leading the sales of licensed toys, the emergence of self-driving cars and drones, and also launch of Mattel’s interactive Barbie Doll, among others. However, the growth of the market is constrained by toy safety requirements, counterfeiting of toy products and unfavourable structural trends in the global market.

New study “Global Licensed Merchandise Market-Focus on Licensed Toys: Trends and Opportunities (2016-2020)” prepared by Daedal Research is devoted to examining the potential opportunities and limelighting the important trends in the global licensed merchandise retail market, specifically focusing on licensed toys.
