We are part of Faber Castell, which is a global company. We have offices here in Mumbai and around the world. I'm really excited to be here. I think that obviously India is the new frontier for toy and game development. I'm seeing outstanding suppliers here. Great ideas. People are really excited about India and about what India can mean to the toy industry. I've walked away with great ideas and I've made a lot of really great connections and great relationships while I've been here all right.
We supply education resources to international schools globally and work with schools in over 200 countries. We typically source our products over the years from UK, US, Australia, Germany and other European countries. But I have seen that the Indian manufacturing and toy industry is coming up to compete at such large scales in these forums and I've been a part of Kids India for the last couple of years and I can see the drastic change in the approach for the manufacturers as well as the organizers in how they have pushed the event through to international buyers like us and I wish the organizers all the best for future events and hope to be part of this in the future.
We make pullback toy vehicles and we've been in the industry since 1985. We were the first in the world to come up with the plastic toy cars having a door open feature and we are the first in the country to introduce the pullback mechanism and we have about eight patents and three of them applied for it now. I've been with Kids India since year one, been there at every show and usually A1 is what I usually get. That's where I'm right now. It's perhaps the best platform you can get in India to exhibit your products not only for the Indian market but also the international market because this year we have over 75 international buyers. I think it's just a wonderful event.
We manufacture toys for all ages and we are based out of Delhi. So, recently we have launched a product which is Solar Crash. It's something related to solar system where you need to capture the planet. So, it's an interacting game for four people. It's a great exhibition. I think we are a part of Kids India every year and we get to meet a lot of international clients here. So, I think that's the best part about Kids India. One word for the event is awesome
We are happy to be at the Kids India show because it is very inspiring. I meet a lot of nice people, friendly people and some very nice brands and so on.
It's been a pleasure to be at kids. India 2023. We've had an excellent opportunity to show some of our new launches, meet some old friends and make some new ones as well. Visitors from across the globe are here looking at our products, looking forward to increasing their buying from India. And we're very excited for all the conversations that have started and look forward to a lot of conversions from here on out. I think it's been a fantastic fair. We've had visitors from United States all the way to New Zealand. It's been lovely to see them. A lot of local customers from Mumbai itself, from different parts of India have been coming as well. There have been dialogues across education. We had the head of NID visit our stall and give us some feedback on our products. Being a part of the panel yesterday on the value of play was a very, very wonderful conversation over there as well. So great fair and the execution is fantastic.
We have two segments with us which is supported by the Ministry of Commerce and Industry and we promote these two sectors internationally. Yeah definitely it's an excellent platform for the manufacturers and exporters of toys, especially the smaller ones who sometimes are still thinking of starting to export because we invite a lot of international buyers to this exhibition and this becomes a very good platform for them to interact and get introduction to the international buyers. Like this year we have been able to invite 70 buyers from 30 different countries. So, they were here for two days and the feedback that we received from the buyers is also excellent. They have been able to find a lot of new items and the new manufacturers here. So, one word would be excellent platform for budding exporters.
Our company essentially supplies educational institutions and we work in all the categories starting from toys to stationery to sports goods to music supplies and even furniture. I think India is progressing every year and I have been visiting this exhibition since a few years and the quality of suppliers and the quality of products has seen a significant change especially in terms of compliance to relevant international standards as well as the overall product range available. Kids India is definitely an excellent platform and I think the number of visitors as well as number of exhibitors represent a large plethora of products and categories that is on display and it is definitely a very good step and I would say it is growing and growing very well.
