The World?s Most Valuable Toy and Toy-Related Brands

Kantar BrandZ this month released its ranking of the world’s most valuable brands. As you would imagine, Amazon, Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Tencent make up the top 5.

But what are the most valuable Toy and Toy-Related brands? In other words, companies that either make or sell toys and those who create intellectual property licensed by toy companies.

I studied the Kantar list, and here are the most valuable Toy and Toy-Related brands:

#1 Amazon is currently the number 2 retailer in the world. They are expected to pass Walmart in 2021. Its streaming platform Amazon Prime provides child and family-oriented movies and animation licensed by toy companies.
