DOMS Industries Pvt Ltd announces the acquisition of a 30% equity stake in toy manufacturing company ClapJoy Innovations Private Limited. This move is part of DIPL’s strategy to expand into newer and allied product categories to capitalise on its vast global distribution reach. This move is a step towards this strategy as it will mark its presence in the growing toy industry.

ClapJoy, a Delhi NCR based, toy manufacturing and marketing firm, was established in 2021 with the goal of delivering joy and happiness to millions of children and parents. ClapJoy produces environmentally friendly children games and toys for ages 0 to 99.

In a short span of less than two years the ClapJoy team has scaled to selling more than 5,000 units monthly catering to educational segment as well as family and party segments.

The funds raised will also enable ClapJoy to expand its product portfolio and manufacturing capabilities. While DOMS shall get access to ClapJoy's portfolio of products, ClapJoy shall benefit from DIPL’s extensive distribution network, consumer understanding and product engineering which shall help the company increase its market share and grow its revenue through pan India presence.
