A Key Sourcing Platform for Buyers

International buyers visiting the exhibition are also exploring India’s growing capabilities in producing high-quality toys that meet global safety and quality standards, further strengthening the country’s reputation as a reliable manufacturing destination.
Supporting the Growth of India’s Toy Industry
The exhibition comes at a time when India’s toy industry is experiencing significant transformation. Government initiatives promoting domestic manufacturing, innovation and exports have encouraged manufacturers to invest in advanced production technologies, product development and quality certification.
Under the ‘Made in India’ initiative, Indian toy manufacturers have increased their focus on producing locally designed and manufactured products while reducing dependence on imports. This shift has helped create new employment opportunities, strengthen local supply chains and improve the competitiveness of Indian products in international markets.
Toy Biz International reflects this positive momentum by providing manufacturers with a platform to showcase their capabilities to buyers from across India and abroad. Industry experts believe that exhibitions like Toy Biz play a vital role in connecting businesses, encouraging investment and supporting the long-term growth of the sector.
Innovation Takes Centre Stage
Innovation remains one of the defining themes of Toy Biz International 2026. Manufacturers are introducing products that combine entertainment with education, helping children develop creativity, critical thinking and problem-solving skills through play.
Many exhibitors are presenting interactive learning toys, science kits, robotics-based educational products and technology-enabled games designed to enhance children’s learning experiences. Sustainable manufacturing is another growing focus, with several companies showcasing eco-friendly toys made from recyclable materials and responsibly sourced components.
The exhibition also highlights improvements in product design, safety standards and packaging, demonstrating the industry’s commitment to delivering high-quality products that meet both domestic and international regulatory requirements.
Creating Business and Export Opportunities
Beyond product displays, Toy Biz International 2026 serves as a networking platform where manufacturers, distributors, exporters, importers and industry stakeholders can exchange ideas and explore new business opportunities.
The exhibition is expected to facilitate strategic collaborations, distribution partnerships and export agreements that will help Indian manufacturers expand into new international markets. As global demand for affordable, safe and innovative toys continues to grow, Indian companies are increasingly positioning themselves as competitive suppliers for overseas buyers.
The event also provides startups and small manufacturers with valuable exposure, enabling them to showcase their products alongside established brands and connect with potential investors, retailers and business partners.
Strengthening India’s Position in the Global Market
India’s toy industry has made remarkable progress in recent years, supported by favourable government policies, improved manufacturing capabilities and growing investments in research and product innovation. Toy Biz International 2026 reflects this progress by bringing together every segment of the toy value chain under one roof.
From manufacturers and suppliers to retailers, exporters, e-commerce companies and international buyers, the exhibition demonstrates the collaborative efforts driving the industry’s continued expansion. The strong participation from leading brands and businesses also highlights growing confidence in India’s potential as a global toy manufacturing hub.
As the exhibition continues through July 7, visitors can expect to discover the latest innovations, establish valuable business connections and gain insights into the future direction of the toy and childcare industry. With its focus on innovation, sourcing, exports and collaboration, Toy Biz International 2026 is once again reinforcing its position as one of South Asia’s premier trade exhibitions for the toy sector while supporting India’s ambition to become a leading player in the global toy market.
