TIME magazine has announced its 2025 TIME100 Most Influential Companies, recognizing POP MART as the first-ever Chinese art toy company to be featured, POP MART is listed under the “Disrupters” category.
This recognition affirms the global impact of POP MART’s brand vision. In 2024, all four of its core IPs—THE MONSTERS, CRYBABY, MOLLY, and SKULLPANDA—achieved over RMB 1 billion in revenue. Notably, CRYBABY hit this milestone in just 18 months, marking a new record for IP growth. Alongside high revenue, POP MART continues to innovate across product lines: plush toys grew by 1289%, POP BLOCK sets sold out upon launch, and designer art toys now account for a healthier 53.2% of the product mix, reflecting a maturing IP-centered ecosystem.
POP MART has successfully opened themed and flagship stores in landmark locations around the world—such as MEGA BANGNA, the largest shopping mall in Bangkok; Ba Na Hills in Vietnam; Oxford Street in the UK; San Diego in the US; and Myeongdong in South Korea—continuously expanding its international presence. In July last year, POP MART entered the Louvre in Paris, becoming the first Chinese designer toy brand to be featured in this world-renowned art institution.
