Who is My Melody?
Sanrio’s official Japanese character page gives My Melody’s debut year as 1975 and her birthday as 18 January. She is an honest, cheerful girl who looks out for her little brother; her treasure is the hood her grandmother made, and she loves baking cookies with her mother.
Who makes My Melody products?
My Melody is a Sanrio character. Sanrio sells its own Sanrio Original goods and also licenses its characters to other companies; on the official character page, goods made under licence are tagged “Sanrio License” and listed apart from Sanrio Original goods. For a sourcing project, ask which company holds the licence and which countries and product categories it covers.
What should buyers check?
Designs that pair My Melody with Kuromi or other Sanrio characters need every character covered by the licence and the artwork approval. For cosmetics or food, also confirm that the licence names that exact category, and send the artwork, product type, quantity and destination markets with your enquiry.
