Local company set for big award win
After being shortlisted in the "Online Category" for this years "Toy Retailer Awards" we have sent out the following press release.......
Managing Director, Nigel Taylor commented, "It’s wonderful to be recognised by the BTHA, you always hope you are doing a great job but to even be listed amongst larger companies such as Amazon justifies all of the effort we have put into the business. We have our fingers firmly crossed and are now hoping of winning the category!"
Treasure Island Toys (www.treasureislandtoys.co.uk) work hard to give a wide offering of traditional toys for all pockets. Their buying team enjoys sourcing great products that will not only appeal to children but to parents and grandparents too. The online buying experience is both enjoyable and clear with a variety of useful tools such as a gift finder and the unique Playability section.
Playability has been worked on for around 6 months and the company is now seeing real rewards. A previous marketing director of Hamleys was employed to write for the company about how children developed in five main areas: Creativity, Physical Skills, Manipulative Skills, Role Play and Sensory Skills. This has been utilised to provide valuable information for every single toy available on the site, so parents and gift buyers are assured of getting an age appropriate toy that will give the child enjoyment and help with their development.
The British Toy and Hobby Association will announce their winner for Online Retailer of the Year at the annual Toy Industry Awards held at the Banqueting House in London on January 26th 2010.
