We were founded in 2012 and continued to grow the business in the following years, with extreme growth in the last 3 years. Historically, we have outsourced our HR needs, but we are ready to start our own in-house department for this dynamic, fast paced company.

Currently, we have 133 FT employees, a distribution center and storage facility in Gray Court and Fountain Inn, SC, respectively. Some of our customers include Wal-Mart, Amazon, Target, Meijer, and several grocery chains. Our distribution center operates M-F 8-5 except during the holiday season when sales have historically demanded additional shifts to accommodate the customers' needs. We provide products for creative, traditional play with trendy takes on classic toys.

At our core, we believe in providing an exceptional experience to our customers, partners, and employees alike, and that's part of why we were named a Top 5 Workplace in South Carolina in 2022 and 2023 and to the Top 50 Fastest Growing Companies in South Carolina . We are happy to offer the best comprehensive benefits packages with the hope of improving each employee's overall quality of life.

As a toy company, we want to spread sunshine and happiness, and that starts with our team because; "Who Doesn't Love a Sunny Day?" If this sounds like a team you would like to be a part of, we would love to talk with you!
