Nickelodeon International has entered a pan-European, multi-year toy partnership with SAMBRO, a global supplier of licensed merchandise! The new agreement expands Nickelodeon’s relationship with SAMBRO to include more properties, product categories and European markets.
As part of the expanded partnership, SAMBRO will develop a complete new range range of outdoor and novelty toys, arts & crafts, stationery and bags, plus new educational games and role play sets for Nickelodeon and Nick Jr. branded products, as well as select character brands.
“SAMBRO impressed us with their work on Nickelodeon Slime from January this year, and this new, expanded agreement signals our confidence in the relationship,” said Mark Kingston, Senior Vice President (SVP), International, Viacom Nickelodeon Consumer Products (VNCP). “We believe that the same creativity SAMBRO showed with Nickelodeon Slime will shine through in all of the properties covered in this new agreement.”
