Cra-Z-Art Expands U.S. Toy Production by 50% in New Jersey

Cra-Z-Art announced in March 2025 plans to expand its U.S. manufacturing footprint by 50% to 1.5 million square feet, focusing on toys and school supplies in New Jersey facilities. The move, motivated by tariffs on imports from China, builds on its existing Tennessee and Florida plants to reduce costs and speed up delivery. This initiative aims to benefit retailers and consumers while boosting local economies.
