In 2024, the Manufacture of Games and Toys sector in France comprises 265 enterprises, reflecting a sharp decline from 2023. Forecasts predict a continual downward trend, with the number of enterprises expected to diminish to just 11 by 2028. This represents a rapid decrease, with significant year-on-year contractions: a 24.5% drop in 2025, a 31.5% decline in 2026, a 46.7% fall in 2027, and an 84.9% plunge in 2028. Over the five-year forecast period, the sector faces a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) that underscores intense aggregation or potential exit from the market.
Future trends to watch for include potential industry consolidation, increased competition from digital gaming, and regulatory changes impacting manufacturing. Moreover, innovations in sustainable toy production and shifts in consumer preferences towards more digital experiences could further shape sector dynamics.
