Faire offers smaller retailers easy access to thousands of brands as well as favourable payment terms and introductory discounts.
Mojo Fun is delighted to announce that its product range is now available through the wholesale platform for independent brands, Faire.
Speaking exclusively to Toy World magazine, James Connolly, director of Mojo Fun, said the decision to partner with Faire was based upon the results Mojo’s US distributor was seeing in the US, particularly among smaller, independent retailers. With the UK’s own independent sector facing a raft of challenges this year, including a reduction in travelling reps/salespeople, the site gives buyers at more than 250,000 retailers access to over 100,000 independent brands. Mojo Fun now has its own page on the site, offering over 400 items to choose from.
“The beauty of Faire is that you can integrate the platform with your own website, which is exactly what we’ve done, allowing you to give buyers all the information they need regarding RRPs and margins (which in our case are very attractive),” explains James. “Faire members get free delivery, 60-day payment terms and up to £150 off their first order – which is fantastic for indies without a huge amount of buying power – and Faire guarantees the payments, which gives smaller businesses that much-needed peace of mind when working with new customers. It’s a perfect solution for those small toy and gift shops in small UK towns and villages.”
Mojo Fun has been enjoying a very strong start to 2024, with consecutive double digit growth leaving the team optimistic for what the rest of the year will hold. The company’s range of high-quality, hand-painted figurines continues to enjoy success in the marketplace everywhere from independent retailers such as Starlings Toys to more specialist gift shop locations such as Twycross, Dudley and Colchester zoological parks.
Alongside its product range, which offers collections including Farmyard, Wildlife, Fantasy, Prehistoric Life, Woodland and Sealife, the company prides itself on its unrivalled customer service – something James is passionate about.
“We aim to be as nice and helpful as we possibly can, and dispatch and deliver orders within 48 hours (with an 85% fill-rate),” he says. “Our customers are growing all the time and we’re welcoming new ones all the time too, which reflects how valued our approach is. Independent retailers need quality product on their shelves, quickly, and at good margins – and that’s exactly what we offer.”
