Our purpose
To provide education through play and create shared moments of happiness
Our history
1957. Our company starts off when several toy & game wholesalers in the region join forces and build a partnership.
1988. As for the Jouets SAJOU retail chain.
1991. The wholesalers’ association grows and spreads right across France and give birth to the Partner Jouet group.
2011. Nearly twenty years later, we change our name to WDK Groupe Partner, marking a strategic shift.
2012. For the first time, WDK creates a board game. It is called Dés Dingues.
2013. The Group revolutionizes the pocket money toys market and creates a consistent visual design to enhance these products and raise their perceived value; the Wonderkids toy line is born.
2015. We put a “fresh face” on our Jouets SAJOU logo and color schemes, and our stores get a new look and feel.
2018. The game Dés Dingues meets with unexpected success, and we design new games in the years that follow. So, the Group builds its own brand of board games, Widyka, and we now design and market 2 new games per year.
WDK Groupe Partner’s new identity propels us towards the global sector of family-centred recreation, as well as our ability to create and develop our own products and brands.
We also want to reflect the Group’s values – attentiveness, responsiveness, and real customer service – and express the sole purpose of our team for the last 60 years: satisfy our retail customers, suppliers and all our partners and thereby always earning their trust.
