Panda has expanded its production operation outside of China for the first time by launching a joint venture in Brazil, as unpredictability over US tariffs continues to weigh on the tabletop industry.

Panda has manufactured more than 70 million board games from China since it was launched in 2007, for companies ranging from Asmodee, Stonemaier and Leder Games to first-time creators launching their projects on Kickstarter or Gamefound.

“Brazil’s 10% tariffs are the lowest of all the countries we considered doing business in – even more advantageous than printing in the USA due to the fact that raw materials and components are currently subject to high tariffs.”
