Nintendo toys get UK distribution

Hive Entertainment has signed a deal with Together Plus to distribute its range of Nintendo toys and stationary into the UK market.

Products in Together Plus’ range includes a Mario Bros. chess set, Mario Kart and Mario Galaxy branded stationary as well as mugs, figures and key rings.

We are honoured to be working so closely with Nintendo and are thrilled at the opportunity we have to represent their brand with our new exciting products,” explained Together Plus director Dan Willett.

It was a key part of our strategy that, once we had introduced the range we were able to hand over the distribution side of things to a partner that we felt truly understood our goals.

With Hive, we are partnering with a team who not only deliver an excellent sales and distribution service, but they also consist of individuals who are passionate about the products we will be delivering and have a great understanding of our target markets.”

Hive Entertainment’s Steve Nicholas added: This is an extremely exciting new partnership with Together Plus.

The products arriving over the next 12 months complement Hive’s current product portfolio perfectly and will help to deliver some fantastic sales and margin for all of our retail partners.”
