Start Your Own Disney Store

Have you been planning on opening a Disney store and looking for information on how you could do it? We have an essential guide on where and how to get a license to distribute Disney-branded merchandise like soft lines, toys, home decor, stationeries, personal products, electronic items, and many more!

If you want to own a Disney store, you'd usually consider franchising. It's not a remote possibility, but you'd not find Disney store franchising opportunities as much as you would expect.

Disney Store Licensing Overview

Chances are you’ve read about Disney entering into license agreements with global entertainment companies and other known names in the industry. Those articles would usually involve a store and a chain of stores. This is so because Disney is expensive to franchise as an international brand. Naturally, being the world's largest licensor, posting multi-billion dollars in global retail sales. Since the first Disney store in Glendale, California, in 1987, Disney stores are now worldwide. The process is also complex, and you’d most likely undergo training to run such a famed shop. And after going through a lot of paperwork on a proposal to become a Disney licensee, Disney management reserves the right to accept or reject your application based on their judgment.

Getting Disney Store Licensing Information

If you are interested in becoming a Disney licensee, visit the Web site of the Disney Consumer Products -- the part of The Walt Disney Company that brings the Disney brand available as merchandise -- to know the requirements to become a licensee. An application for a Disney store license would require, among others, that your company has at least five years of experience in manufacturing, distribution, and retailing and the same years of experience in retailing the category of product you wish to license. You'd have to describe your company extensively, including your scope, size, annual revenue, and whether you hold other licenses. You’d also have to provide information about company executives and a proposal on how you intend to conduct a Disney store operation.

Disney Store Products for Licensing

The products you can license include soft lines, which encompass accessories, apparel, footwear, and nightwear; toys such as action figures, activity crafts, construction, board games, puzzles, dolls, toy vehicles, playsets, sporting goods; home decor; stationery; food; drinks; beauty products, and personal care products for babies and adults; electronics items like small appliances, camera, communication gadgets, and computers. The Disney Consumer Products Web site has an extensive list of items that can be the subject of your proposal.

Rights to Disney Products

If you own a small store and thinking of selling Disney merchandise, be aware that Disney is aggressively protecting the rights to its products and could exercise that legal right.

    Dear Sirs, My name is Eleftheria Kondouli. I am from Athens, Greece. I am a graduate of the American College Of Greece (Deree), where I have studied Marketing & Marketing Communications. I am working the past 7 years as an assistant marketing manager in a well known Car Importer in Greece and I am interested in opening the first disney store in Athens Greece, but I cannot find anywhere information regarding franchise policies etc. Could you please give me some guidance? I am not interested in having the license for distributing some disney store products through a store. I want a whole, new exclusive disney store in the heart of Athens. Thank you very much in advance. Kindest regards, Eleftheria Kondouli
  • Guest said on April 5, 2009
    I am from Athens, Greece. On behalf of a friend, I would like to learn the procedure of starting a disney store in Athens. My friend has been recently to a disney store in Italy and he was amazed by the whole concept. He knows that there is not a store like that here in Greece and we couldn't find anywhere information about starting a business like that. So, we would be grateful if you could inform us about the terms and the franchise policies of having the exclusiveness of a disney store in our country. What are the requirements that someone has to have in order to open this store here? What is the minimum operating capital that someone must have just to use the name of this company? Also, what is the percentage of profits that my friend would be obliged to return to the parent company? There must be a standard contract which refers to all these (and much more) details. The operating capital and the franchise terms are the basic things we would like to learn at the beginning, in order to have the exclusiveness of such a store here in Athens. Thanking you in advance for your assistance. I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience.

    Dear Sirs, My name is Susana and I'm from Portugal. Here we have 2 Disney stores: one in Lisbon (the capital) and the newest inaugurated last July in Oporto. It's been a while time since I've been searching for specific information about this concept and the opportunity of opening new Disney Stores in my country. I visited your stores in Portugal and left fascinated with the experience and the possibility to bring some other stores to cover other regions of our territory as well as give the opportunity to more Kids know, visit the stores, enjoy a good time with the Disney magic with their family and to parents acquire some of the Disney products that considered would never be able to acquire. I have a degree in management and actually I´m a Quality and Food safety manager consultant, working with companies of various business areas included retail stores. My interest in this market, particularly working with Disney concept is, specifically, open first a new store in Aveiro city (seaside center of Portugal) and later another in Algarve (south of Portugal, basically a touristic center very well known). I can give you much more information about the economic potential of these 2 regions and why I consider them strategic locations for new Disney Store opens. So, I would be grateful if you could inform me about opening a Disney store here, know exactly what are the requisitions in order to start this kind of business activity, what are the requirements that someone has to have in order to open this store (formalities and investment), the terms and the franchise policies of having the exclusiveness of a Disney store (costs, royalties, etc.) Waiting for an answer.

  • Natalia said on September 30, 2010
    Dear Sirs, My name is Natalia, I'm 33years old, have bachelor degree in psychology and I'm from Latvia, Riga. Visiting London I saw the most amazing Disney Store that I completely fell in love with. I know that there is not a store like that here in Latvia and even in all Baltic countries (Lithuania and Estonia) and having own childrens I think it is unbelievable. Everybody knows Disney brand in Latvia!!!I have 10 years of experience in running my own business as in sales, as in marketing. So, I would be grateful if you could inform me about the terms and the franchise policies of having the exclusiveness of a disney store in our country. What are the requirements that someone has to have in order to open this store here? What is the minimum operating capital that someone must have just to use the name of Disney company? Also, what is the percentage of profits that I would be obliged to return to the parent company? The operating capital and the franchise terms are the basic things we would like to learn at the beginning, in order to have the exclusiveness of such a store in Latvia. I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience. Please make my dream come true:) Thank You in advance, Best Regards, Natalia mob.phone 0037129104421 sonte@inbox.lv
