ToyDirectory Launches Retailer Blog

Specialty Storeowners Lend Their Thoughts


Want to know what's on the minds of specialty toy-store owners? Visit ToyDirectory's blog!

This brand new venture features posts from specialty retailers whose independent enterprises contribute to the creative and varied terrain of the toy industry. The blog is designed to provide an inside look at the thoughts and experiences of those who deal not only with the fun side of toys, but also with issues of product selection, quality and safety, as well as successes and challenges within a competitive business climate.

Bookmark www.toydirectory.com/toyblog to check in on the latest posts from our contributors. In just the first few entries, you'll read about eco-friendly trends, how the CPSIA and an economic crunch are redefining the toy industry, and about one store's love of the Klutz brand.
