  • Four years ago the German soft toy maker Steiff moved production to China. But now the company is moving back to Germany.
    The reasons for the decision are problems with quality, high transport costs and long delivery times. The situation became critical when it took two months to deliver the soft toy version of polar bear Knut. Steiff's move raises one question: is globalization going in reverse? Germany's Association of Toy Manufacturers believes Steiff is not the only toy company thinking of making the move back to Europe as producing in China involves big risks - especially for high quality manufacturers like Steiff.

      I'm ENGLISH and I collect NEW Steiff Mohair 10" Bears 🐻 and smaller Limited Edition and I wouldn't buy them if a single hair was missing, they cost over £100 for a 4" L/E Bear and £140-£280 for 10" Bears so quality matters at that price!

    It seems that most of their recent bears are made in tunisia. I wonder if their products are still high quality.

    I admire germany for hiring their own people to keep the german economy strong but honestly these toys are lame. I have seen these types of toys at FAO Schwartz and the prices on them are nowhere near fair, they are usaully bought by tourists that don't know any better.
