Moose Toys welcomes Ben Krenz as Global General Manager for its Games division

Moose Toys has appointed Ben Krenz as Global General Manager for its Games Division, effective July 14th.

Krenz brings over a decade of industry expertise from Target USA, where he held senior commercial leadership roles, most recently overseeing the full Boys’ Toys business – including Games – and previously leading the retailer’s Games and Puzzles team.

“Ben’s experience, insight and love of games make him a fantastic addition to the Moose team,” said Joost Poulus, Chief Product Officer at Moose Toys.

“He knows how to build high-performing portfolios and understands what resonates with consumers. We’re excited to see him take our Games business to the next level. I also want to thank David Norman for his outstanding contribution in building the division over the past few years – he leaves behind a strong foundation.”

Krenz added: “I’ve always admired Moose’s creativity, pace and ambition – especially in Games. This is an exciting opportunity to help shape a division that’s already achieved so much in such a short time. I can’t wait to work with the team to build the next chapter.”
