Now that the speculation regarding Toy Fair New York and Spielwarenmesse has come to a close, the absence of the largest toy-related trade shows is sparking a new round of virtual events.
On Feb. 7, Toysmith will kick off its inaugural Joy Fair virtual tradeshow event. The four-day event will stream live via YouTube beginning at 12 p.m. ET each day. While Toysmith is known for its position as a leading toy and gift distributor, the company notes that Joy Fair is an event that is open to all — from retailers to consumers.
“Our dedication and commitment to providing the industry’s highest level of customer service is what has always defined us,” says Max Wunderle, chief commercial officer at Toysmith. “Every day, we strive to make it as simple, efficient, and joyful to do business with us and to help our retail partners succeed. Over the last two years, retailers have faced so many new and daunting challenges, and we hope the solutions we’ve developed can make a positive impact all around. We are excited to kick off 2022, which is our 40-year anniversary with this delightful live stream event from the Toysmith streaming studio that will be convenient for anybody to attend.”
The Joy Fair programming lineup is as follows:
- Day 1 — New Products
- Day 2 — New Categories
- Day 3 — New Merchandising Solutions
- Day 4 — Customer Marketing Tools
