Entries are now being accepted for ToyShopUK’s fifth annual Independent Toy Awards.
The only awards where the nation’s independent retailers get to pick the winners, suppliers have until August 22nd to submit products to any or all of the 20 categories.
The 950 retailers which list themselves for free on ToyShopUK will then be invited to vote for their favourite product in each category.
Companies can submit as many products as they like, with each entry costing £100.
Gold, silver and bronze logos will be awarded to the three most popular products in each category. Runners up whose products obtain at least ten per cent of the category’s votes will be awarded a ‘commendation’ logo for use on packaging, catalogues, websites, trade stands and press releases.
Winners will be announced on September 18th. Click on this link for further details.
