New business opportunities in India: delegation offers powerful insights into the market

• Exclusive three-day tour around Kids India in Mumbai
• Direct access to industry experts and retail concepts

The Indian toy market is growing at pace – and is increasingly positioning itself as a global manufacturing location. Against this background, Spielwarenmesse eG has joined forces with its subsidiary, Spielwarenmesse India Pvt. Ltd., to offer participation in an exclusive delegation to Mumbai. As well as attending Kids India, from 6 to 8 October 2025 manufacturers, retailers and sales professionals will have the opportunity to gain personal familiarity with the market, visit production sites and make valuable contacts. 

Focus on economic zone

The tailored programme provides solid insights into the entire value chain of the Indian toy market. “This trip offers a unique opportunity to get close to one of the most dynamic toy markets in the world – with practical, networking and strategic opportunities,” concludes Christian Ulrich, Board Spokesperson at Spielwarenmesse eG. “It is focused on the needs of the participants, to ensure maximum added value,” he adds. It opens with an official reception on 6 October, which is followed by a guided tour of the Kids India trade fair where delegates can familiarise themselves with the latest trends, ‘Made in India’ products and leading players in the market. The day is rounded off with personally arranged B2B meetings and a networking evening. On 7 October, the programme includes various factory visits at which the delegation will gain direct on-the-spot insights into Indian production processes. 8 October is devoted to the topics of distribution and consumer behaviour: a workshop sheds light on the legal fundamentals of the Indian market, followed by a panel discussion with industry experts. The visit ends with a tour of selected toy retailers, providing a practical view of sales approaches and market developments in the region.
