Jumbo, also known as Koninklijke Jumbo (Royal Jumbo), is a historic Dutch company renowned for its puzzles and board games. Its origins date back to 1853, and it is most famous for the 'Jan van Haasteren' and 'Wasgij' puzzle series. The brand is deeply rooted in Dutch manufacturing traditions, with many of its cardboard products and puzzles being produced in the Netherlands to ensure high quality and environmental standards. Over the years, the brand has expanded its global presence, occasionally manufacturing specific components in other international locations, though its core production remains tied to Europe.
In terms of ownership, Jumbo is part of the Jumbo Group, which merged with the French company Diset in 2007 to form Jumbodiset. Currently, the company is owned by MCH Privatbank, and it operates several prominent sub-brands including James Galt & Company, which functions as the UK distributor and brand holder as seen on the packaging. The headquarters of the parent group remains in the Netherlands, maintaining the brand's European identity and legacy in the toy industry.
