The Smiley Company has appointed eight new global agents for its Smiley and Rubik’s brands.

New agents include:

  • Infiniss for South Korea;

  • Doce for Chile;

  • Signet for South Africa;

  • AMV Licensing for Peru, Ecuador and Bolívia;

  • Plus Licens for Russia,

  • Haven for Australia

  • and One RDM for Indonesia.

“The Smiley Company is enjoying a wave of success and has signed on eight new agents from around the world this quarter and more new contract signings are set to happen soon,” says Nicolas Loufrani, founder and chief executive officer, Smiley. “Last year, agents increased their share of our revenues from less than 5 percent of total sales to 15 percent, thanks to the arrival of Barth Montarello who is supporting their sales teams and regularly visiting big retailers with them. Our aim is to now grow the agent share of our business to 25 percent by the end of 2019. We’ve also opened an office in Singapore headed by Marie Kopp to bring additional support to our APAC agents as the region is growing very fast for us. We are very proud to announce these new agents to our global Smiley and Rubik's Licensing agent partner alliance.”
