About this deal

It’s really about how do you immerse our fan base in all the different ways to be actively involved in Nerf.”

Nerf VR, a virtual realty game from Secret Location, the virtual reality division of eOne, scheduled to be released in 2022.It was a category we were deemed relatively mad to enter into as there was such prominent representation in the space,” said Anna Mowbray, CEO of Zuru. Zuru then invested in engineering and manufacturing with the goal of becoming a true challenger to Nerf, with prices that were 40% lower for consumers, and higher margins for retailers. That helped it gain a foothold in discount mass merchants, while Nerf had more of its inventory at Toys R Us, and was hurt when that retailer went bankrupt and liquidated its stores.

However, he noted, Nerf has something that is very hard to beat - 52 years of brand building and a name with cachet. Expansion of the Nerf family entertainment arcade concept, Nerf Action Xperience Centers, which opened its first location in Singapore in 2019. Two additional locations in the United Kingdom and two in the United States are in the works.As Nerf evolves into more of a multi-media and multi-dimensional brand, Warner says his team will be careful to not lose sight of “the bread and butter at our core - where Nerf starts- which is the toy.” But, he added, “I think we have earned the right to take it beyond that.” Hasbro does not break out sales of Nerf, or its other brands, but a Nerf spokesperson said the brand sold 40 million blasters in 2020. Warner, in a Forbes.com interview, said he and his team will be using four pillars to expand the brand: Watch, Live, Play, and Shop. Some of the plans in progress for Nerf include:

Nerf became a brand that’s bigger than a blaster and bigger than a ball,” said Byrne, who co-hosts the toy-focused podcast The Playground. “It’s really an experiential brand and it stands for active social play,” he said. Beaver Raymond also was warned about going up again Nerf when he created a line of blasters that shoot marshmallows, instead of foam darts. Two years ago he sold his Dallas-based Marshmallow Fun Company to outdoor activity toy manufacturer Zing, and now sells the marshmallow blaster line, and Zing’s other products, as Zing’s vice president of sales and marketing. We’ve created a strategy, which we’re starting to execute now, which is about always on,” he said. “How do we stay in front of our core consumers 365 days a year with engaging content that inspires them to play Nerf? And that’s a reflection of who they are.” There’s nothing like your kids running around in the garden or park playing with their friends. Add to their fun time with our range of Nerf Blasters and toys that cater to various play preferences, ensuring hours of engagement and physical activity.Nerf is partnering with a Mexican investment fund to open licensed Hasbro-themed family entertainment centers across Mexico. Nerf has been able to fight off most competitors, and charge more for its products, because it invested in quality, Byrne said. “When you take up their blaster it’s gonna work,” he said. Other companies that made lower-priced versions, including Toys R Us, which produced a private label line of bargain blasters, couldn’t match Nerf’s performance. “You could be in the middle of a blaster battle and it completely jams up. Nobody wants that to happen,” he said.
