on the planned event has been extremely positive . In the meantime , we can say that our expectations have even been exceeded ,” said Christian Ulrich , Spokesman of the Board of Spielwarenmesse eG . With more than 150 exhibitors , Kids India once again resumes its position as India ’ s most important international B2B fair for toys , children ’ s and sporting goods . Trade visitors can expect the usual wide variety of products and brands , from global brands to local players and small newcomers – the full range of goods will be represented there .
The economic situation in the country is also responsible for good sales forecasts . Due to the demographic trend and the rising incomes and consumer spending of Indian households , industry sales will continue to grow in the years to come . This makes India particularly attractive for the international toy industry . Good import opportunities are emerging thanks to the expanding middle class and the demand for quality toys . Products produced in India are also gaining more and more interest abroad . The Indian government is committed to the “ Vocal for Local ” campaign and is attracting quality toy manufacturers with the “ Make in India ” initiative . Official seals , such as those from the Bureau of Indian Standards ( BIS ), also help endorse the cause . The ultimate aim is to reinforce what India has to offer in terms of goods and to position the country as a global manufacturing hub for toys .
" These activities are crucial for the international toy industry . And with Kids India , we are providing the industry with an up-to-date platform that will help develop the future of the Indian toy sector ." Christian Ulrich adds , " We look forward to welcoming all companies at Kids India who want to be involved in the future of play ."
