With great enthusiasm, they created Golden Bear Products Ltd which rapidly became a leading manufacturer of soft toys and the company has gone from strength to strength ever since.Indeed, this year has been right up there with the most special with the company revealing its award-winning interactive soft toy range Curlimals is now becoming a huge success globally. They are being launched in more than 25 countries and across all continents next year following phenomenal success in the UK.
