Our fundamental role is to ensure that each Toymaster Member has all of the tools they need to compete in the Toy Retail market. Our Mission Statement is ‘To Help Our Members Trade More Profitably by Providing an Excellent Service to Both Our Members and Suppliers’. We are here to help facilitate the relationship between Member and Supplier to help both parties grow their business.

Yogi Parmar, Managing Director

We attribute a lot of our success to being part of such a professional buying group. The invoice management system, TIMS, is really useful to Members, as it collates all supplier invoices in one place resulting in a single monthly payment, saving us time & money. There are many other benefits available that you can either choose to use or not, depending on which ones are most relevant to your business.

One of the most important benefits for us as an independent business is having the opportunity to meet & speak to other like-minded retailers, to talk about our problems and our successes.
We feel Toymaster is a really valuable asset to our business.

Chris Blatcher, Chairman & Owner of JAC Stores
