James will work alongside UK sales manager Nigel Deacon and McCabe Marketing & Sales, as KIM continues to expand. 

Kids International Marketing is pleased to announce that the company has strengthened its sales team with the appointment of James Triptree to manage key accounts.

James is well known across the UK toy trade having managed the Sales Partnership for over 20 years. In his new role, he joins Nigel Deacon (UK sales manager) and McCabe Marketing & Sales, which manages the company’s business in Ireland.

The appointment follows James’ recent announcement of his new company, toys2market. Based in the UK, toys2market will provide a broad range of services to toy and games manufacturers and suppliers. James is planning to work with both British and European suppliers who seek representation within the UK. Other services offered by toys2market will include overseeing national and key accounts.
