2024 Is The Year Of Peppa Pig

2024 will mark the 20th anniversary of Peppa Pig and Hasbro has big plans for the celebrations. With theme parks, immersive experiences and collaborations already confirmed, Peppa is sure to flood the market. Make sure you are ready to capitalize on the event.

  • Hasbro has big plans for the cartoon’s 20th-anniversary celebrations, confirming various events, which include new theme parks, an immersive experience and celebrity guest Katy Perry being on the show. For retailers, this means leveraging its marketing power in 2024.
  • In the mass market, sleepwear is the hero category for investment, accounting for 22% of current in-stock options, providing the perfect gifting products. Marks & Spencer’s Percy Pig range also reinforces this, currently only stocking pajamas, slippers and lounge hoodies.
  • Other areas for consideration should include Halloween costumes and back-to-school products. Outerwear presents an opportunity for exit price points within assortments, noting 44% of Next’s 18 Regatta options have sold through, despite being priced 67% higher on average than George at Asda and Sainsbury’s.
  • Promotional stories, including pink themes and World Book Day in March, should be bookmarked to help with marketing strategies.
