Toys E-commerce Benchmarks

Why these numbers look like this

Toy sales are heavily concentrated in Q4, with November and December often accounting for 40-50% of annual revenue. Licensing fees for branded characters from Disney, Marvel, or Pokémon can eat 8-15% of revenue, compressing net margins despite healthy gross margins. Safety compliance (ASTM, CPSIA) adds testing costs that smaller sellers often underestimate.
