Continue to invest in China, a strategic growth market
The LEGO Group is on the journey to bring the unique and creative LEGO play to more children in China and there is growing demand for the brand and affinity for creativity and learning through play in the market. Creativity is seen as a top skill by parents on China’s mainland for their children’s future success, according to LEGO Play Well Report 2020.
Since the 2nd CIIE which was held in November 2019, the number of LEGO branded retail stores on China’s mainland was almost doubled to 207 as of October 31, 2020. It is expected that another 80 new LEGO branded retail stores will be opened on China’s mainland in 2021, making the total number to reach 300 by the end of next year.
Niels B. Christiansen, Chief Executive Officer of the LEGO Group, said “We are very pleased with the progress we have made in China over the past year. We have continued to invest in bringing learning through play to many more children around the country and achieved double digit growth. Despite the challenges, we opened more than 80 new stores and launched a theme inspired by Chinese legend in the past 12 months. We remain confident in the long-term potential of the China market.”
Joining forces to build a better planet for all
The LEGO Group announced in September plans to invest up to US$400 million over three years to accelerate sustainability and social responsibility initiatives. By 2022, the LEGO Group aims to reach 8 million children around the world annually with learning through play through a range of activities with partners, in collaboration with the LEGO Foundation.
LEGO Foundation and the LEGO Group today announced that they have joined forces with China Braille Press, an affiliated agency to China Disabled Persons Federation (CDPF), to test the LEGO Braille Bricks in China with objectives of introducing a fun and engaging way to help Chinese children with vision impairment develop tactile skills and learn the braille system.
The testing program is being implemented in four blind schools in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Taian cities in China. It is the first time that the LEGO braille bricks toolkit is prototyped outside Latin-based languages. Currently the concept has launched in six Latin-based languages and the ambition is to implement a further five, bringing the total up to eleven languages across twenty countries by early 2021.
Stine Storm, Senior Play & Health Specialist at the LEGO Foundation, said “We are very excited to kick off the testing of LEGO Braille Bricks with local partners in China. We believe blind children should have equal access to learning through play opportunities, just like sighted children. Through inclusion, they will have the chance to learn a breadth of key skills such as communication, collaboration, joint problem-solving, etc. ”
