NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Snorble, a leader in innovative educational technology for children, is delighted to announce the addition of Andy Keimach to its Advisory Board. With over 40 years of experience in global consumer products and a distinguished track record in the toy and children's products industry, Andy brings unparalleled expertise to Snorble as the company prepares for commercialization and international expansion.

Andy most recently served as President of VTech Electronics North America, the largest international subsidiary of Hong Kong-based VTech Electronics, from 2018 to 2023. In this role, he led the Electronic Learning Products (ELPs) business for both the VTech and LeapFrog brands, propelling them to achieve record-breaking successes through strategic growth, exceptional customer business development, and significant supply chain improvements.

Prior to VTech, Andy was President of Munchkin, Inc., one of the world’s leading brands for babies and children. There, he focused on building a robust international sales team and expanding the business geographically, contributing to Munchkin's rise as a foremost infant products manufacturer.

Under his leadership, teams at both VTech and Munchkin were recognized with Supplier/Vendor-of-the-Year Awards from major retailers including Target, Walmart, Toys "R" Us, and Babies "R" Us, reflecting his exceptional relationship management and cross-functional business achievements.

In January of 2024, Andy transitioned from his advisory role to serve as Interim President & Chief Executive of The Toy Association, where he has also served two terms on the Board of Directors, recently holding the position of secretary-treasurer. He was previously a two-time board chair of the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association, demonstrating his commitment to advancing the industry.

"Snorble is without question a game changer for families and the industry. Snorble raises the innovation bar and is extraordinary! This product will set a new standard for bringing safe, cutting edge and fun technology to the toy and juvenile products categories," said Andy Keimach.
