WHO WE ARE
Learning Express is the nation's leading specialty toy franchise with over 150 locations across the country. At Learning Express we pride ourselves on the quality and uniqueness of our toy selection - a mix of products that foster a love of learning through play.
We focus on providing a fun and friendly shopping environment and a knowledgeable staff that can offer expert advice to those looking for the perfect toy. We also strive to be an integral part of the communities where we are located. Participation in fundraising campaigns for schools and civic organizations makes each of our stores a hub of activity and a cherished part of the neighborhood.
WHAT WE DO
We have built our award-winning system by blending the power of a proven business concept with the entrepreneurial energy of our franchisees and focusing on the profitability of our stores.
When you become a Learning Express franchisee you gain access to a comprehensive array of expertise, support, services and buying power designed to increase your success and profitability.
This includes an experienced team to take you through every step of your grand opening process (including a support person being onsite for 4 weeks for the Grand Opening); an extensive program of ongoing training; an in-house marketing, graphics and PR department; a robust website with the option to sell toys online; a rich company intranet to share information and ideas with fellow store owners; and a consistent focus on metrics, which provide you with solid information on which products and marketing investments contribute the most to your bottom line.
Additionally, the Learning Express buying department is dedicated to sourcing product and negotiating prices and terms with hundreds of vendors on the behalf of 150 stores. The power of this is evident from the time you open your store – the discounts, free products and displays associated with your opening order more than off set the initial franchise fee.
If you have a passion for what we do, we would love to hear from you.
