If you’ve ever looked into manufacturing toys, games or other products aimed at children and young adults, you may have heard of Disney FAMA (Facility and Merchandise Authorization) certification.
What is Disney FAMA?
As the largest licensor of consumer products in the world, Disney’s FAMA certification program exists to ensure that manufacturers who produce Disney-branded products follow guidelines for ethical manufacturing and sourcing.
Disney has strict ethical and legal requirements for its sourcing process. You can view these in the Supply Chain section of Disney’s website.
More than 43,500 facilities in 100+ countries produce Disney products. These suppliers need to meet Disney’s strict code of conduct for worker rights, environmental protection, safety, product integrity, supplier diversity and collaboration.
FAMA certification demonstrates that a supplier meets these standards. The supplier is audited by Disney (or one of Disney’s partners) on a regular basis to verify that it complies with all of the code of conduct categories listed above.
Disney requires that any facilities without FAMA certification may not produce or handle Disney products.
If you’re planning to create a board game, card game, toy or other entertainment product, look for Disney FAMA certification as a signal that the manufacturer operates ethically and follows industry best practices.
