Animal Jam, the global online playground from WildWorks, has welcomed a swathe of new UK partners following a successful showing at Brand Licensing Europe in October.

The brand’s agent, Rockpool Licensing, has secured new partners across a variety of categories.

Ravensburger has come on board for games and puzzles; Winning Moves for Top Trumps and Hasbro for board game brand extensions; Whitehouse Leisure for amusement plush and gift; GB Eye for posters; BC International for the Toys R Us apparel concessions; and Centum Books as international publishing partner.

They join existing partners Cooneen and Misirli, Dreamtex, Gemma, IG Design Group and Posh Paws.

Vickie O’Malley, md of Rockpool Licensing, commented: “BLE was a tremendous success for Animal Jam, and we’re so thrilled to be able to announce these wonderful new partners. The enthusiasm everyone has shown for this special property is so rewarding.
