HAPE INTEGRATES TEAM T4, A FRENCH CHILDCARE FURNITURE COMPANY WHICH STRENGTHENS THE GROUP'S STRUCTURE

TO PROVIDE QUALITY PRODUCTS AND SERVICES TO FAMILIES AROUND THE WORLD.

OUR DEAR PARTNERS

We are pleased to announce that as of May 1st 2023, TEAM T4 will join the HAPE group and thus join one of the major actors of the wooden toy industry, in Europe and in the world.

It is a new page which is written for Team T4, in the continuity of the work accomplished within the group Team Tex since 5 years. Thanks to Team Tex and the strength of the group we have solidly crossed the turbulences and the unstable economic situation of these last years and reinforced our positions on the French market and on the e-commerce. The HAPE group will put at our disposal its important industrial establishment in Eastern Europe and will bring us all its expertise to further improve our products and our prices. For our part, we will bring them our knowledge of the childcare market which will complete their offer of early learning games for the 0-2 years target. The links forged with the Team Tex teams will continue with numerous synergies at the commercial level, particularly with targeted distribution agreements.

OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE

“After being in the toy and education industry for over three decades, serving our business partners and helping them on a daily basis leads us to think: what do we want to achieve? We keep children at the heart of everything we do and are committed to making not just more products, but better products. With our additional investment in Team T4, we plan to develop better products and services focused on the joyful and creative user experience of children and young people. "

-Founder and CEO of Hape Group: Peter Handstein

"This is a new chapter for Team T4. The HAPE group is offering us very strong development opportunities and is counting on us to expand in the childcare furniture market in France and Europe. The complementarity between our companies gives us all the assets to meet this challenge"

-CEO of TEAM T4 : Julien Hugonnet
