NEW YORK, NY — Toys”R”Us^®, the world’s leading toy retailer, is more present than ever this holiday season. With 100 days until Christmas, the brand is celebrating its largest growth year yet, now spanning more than 1,500 stores and e-commerce businesses across 35+ countries.

In the U.S., Toys”R”Us is expanding in a big way this holiday season with its partner Go! Retail Group, opening 10 new flagship stores and 20 seasonal holiday shops by year’s end. The brand already operates global flagships at American Dream and Mall of America, as well as flagship locations in Chicago and Texas, plus a Toys”R”Us inside every Macy’s store nationwide and a dedicated store at Dallas Fort Worth Airport.
