The last two years have been hugely exciting for the Moomin brand, from celebrating its 75th anniversary, to launching their ABC initiative, a literacy programme to help develop young readers and writers. This initiative has been hugely successful and will be the basis of a touring exhibition with the first stop being held at the Eden Project over half-term.<\/p>\n
The love and appeal that Moomin has is far reaching, transcending generations, and this highlighted by the breadth of their products and partners as well as the mix of retail.
