Who is Pompompurin?
Sanrio’s official Japanese character page gives Pompompurin’s debut year as 1996 and his birthday as 16 April. He is a laid-back golden retriever boy whose trademark is a dark brown beret; he collects shoes, his favourite word is “outing” and the one he dislikes is “staying home alone”.
Who makes Pompompurin products?
Pompompurin 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?
Licensed ranges can be tied to one partner brand or retailer. An approval for another company’s range does not carry over to your product, so ask for the licensee’s name, the approved artwork and the category, and send the artwork, product type, quantity and destination markets with your enquiry.
