Sponsorships & Advertising Opportunities at ToyFest
ToyFest is produced by the Western Toy & Hobby Representatives Association, whose objective is to foster successful business relationships between reps, manufactures and independent retailers. Generous sponsorships help us to create an enjoyable and productive show for everyone involved. ROI on ToyFest is not only about the numbers in the 4-day show it’s also about the orders that are made in the months after ToyFest, the leads obtained for the entire year, the catalogs that retailers use for the next few months and the presence that reps and manufacturers have at the show that make relationships for years to come. ~Sandy Lepire, ToyFest President
