![]() If it does reemerge and KB Toys and others try to fill the market gap left by Toys "R" Us, I hope that we will see sound strategies that consider the importance of customer reputation and the burden of debt. This company closed its doors about 10 years ago. Among the outlets that we may see again is KB Toys. Many suppliers are now searching for “doors” to sell. Bain, KKR and Vornado took the company private in 2005 raising $6.6 billion in debt which weakened the enterprise. The lesson we learn here is that the high debt can eventually kill a company. WHP Global acquired Toys 'R' Us and Babies 'R' Us in 2021. Sadly, this business closure also reminds us of the danger of high debt.

To be left in the lurch is scary and damaged the reputation of Babies “R” Us. It should be a happy time for the expectant family and their many friends who want to share in the joyful event. A win for all since this brand will benefit by making their merchandise visible and available. Manufacturers like Graco now are even working through MyRegistry to offer products once exclusive to Babies "R" Us to any registrant still eager to have access to their full assortment. That company also has the ability to aggregate a replacement list of those Babies “R” Us products with choices from other retailers to give customers an easy way to manage their registry and combine it with specialized products from any favorite store. Their customer care personnel are available seven days a week via live chat, e-mail and phone.
