Grani & Partners can now present itself as one of the leading publishers in the Italian market, offering a wide variety of products and licenses and the capacity to develop ever more new and popular products. The company’s success is attributable to several factors, including informative magazines and sticker collections based on important educational concepts, licenses for some of the most popular children’s characters around and toys that are 100% safe as they have been tested by the Italian Toy Safety Institute and carry the "Giocattoli Sicuri" (Safe Toys) mark.

Grani products stimulate children’s curiosity and interest, increasing their sense of belonging to a community and heightening their awareness of the world around them in all its forms (nature, fashion, games ...).
