Toy and Hobby Industry reports that the global toy market generates about $90 billion in annual revenue, according to the NPD Group.
The US is the world’s largest toy market, accounting for nearly 30% of total sales. Areas of growth include China and India, where rising disposable income is driving increased demand. The US toy and hobby store industry includes about 8,100 stores with combined annual revenue of about $19 billion. These figures do not include web-based toy-centric businesses.
Consumer spending is a key driver of demand for toy and hobby stores. In addition, population growth among young children (under 12) drives demand for toy stores, and population growth among women 35 and older drives demand hobby stores. Small companies can compete effectively by offering specialized products, providing superior customer service, or serving a local market. The US industry is highly concentrated: the top 50 retail companies generate about 85% of revenue.
Brick-and-mortar toy stores are losing market share to online toy retailers, including Amazon.com.
Inventory assortment depends on store size and product specialization. Large toy stores offer between 8,000 and 24,000 stock-keeping units (SKUs), while a specialty toy store may only carry 500. Inaccurate forecasting is a frequent problem and most retailers rely on end-of-season sales to clear merchandise.
Toy and hobby stores buy products from manufacturers, importers, or distributors. Both retailers may offer unique private label products, which generate higher margins. Toy stores may depend greatly on major toy manufacturers due to the popularity of branded products like Barbie and Hot Wheels.
Imports are a high percentage of toy and hobby products, and retailers may place orders up to six months in advance but major toy retailers may place positional orders over a year in advance. Retailers attend trade shows (like the American International Toy Fair for toy stores) or craft fairs to help decide on merchandise.
