Netflix has named Moose Toys the master toy partner for Charlie vs. the Chocolate Factory and Young MacDonald.

“This is a meaningful next step in our relationship with Netflix as we continue to develop a dynamic portfolio of entertainment-driven brands,” said Ronnie Frankowski, CEO at Moose Toys.

“Both Young MacDonald and Charlie vs. the Chocolate Factory offer immersive storytelling and playful worlds that are ideal for the kind of surprising, innovative toys Moose is known for. We see a tremendous opportunity to create products that connect with kids in fresh and meaningful ways.”
