After signing The Point.1888 as master licensing agent in EMEA for its portfolio of brands – bar "CoComelon" in Germany, Switzerland and Austria – last summer, the U.K.-based agency brought 11 leading licensees in the U.K. to the brand with a further 12 in May.   

The Point.1888 has announced a massive roster of new partners with nine additional licensees in the U.K.; including Little Brother Books (annuals), Tonies (audio), Corsair (health and beauty), Bayer (prams and strollers), William Lamb (footwear and bags), MV Sports (wheeled goods), Hunter Price (secondary toys), Drew Pearson (headwear and accessories) and 8th Wonder (plush chairs and warmers).

"With Moonbug's 'CoComelon' being the No. 1 children's and educational channel on YouTube, with more than one-hundred billion views globally, and also the world's most-streamed show on Netflix, it is the perfect timing for new products to launch in market," says Bethan Garton, commercial director, The Point.1888. "We've all worked hard to ensure that our partners understand the brand's mission and values to ensure that every new product launched will provide fans with as much fun and support as the channel does. We cannot wait for the next stage and to see these products come to market."  

 "We are delighted to be working with our partners across EMEA to continue to harness the power of our brands across the region," says Adam Steel, senior commercial manager, international licensing, Moonbug. 

"CoComelon" will also be extending its brand across Benelux with Vadobag (bags), Van der Erve (apparel and accessories) and TM Essentials (puzzles and crafts).

With more than 100 billion views globally, "CoComelon" is building its EMEA partnership with significant steps from The Point.1888 and their sub-agents. What's more, is that "CoComelon" is just part of the Moonbug portfolio, which includes Blippi, "Little Baby Bum," "My Magic Pet Morphle," "Supa Strikas," "Go Buster," "Playtime with Twinkle" and more across 27 different languages.
