Crown and Andrews Information

In June 2014, Goliath Games acquired Crown & Andrews. Goliath is one of the few remaining family-owned and operated businesses in the world of toys and games. Goliath Games was founded in 1980 by Adi Golad. Adi and Margreeth (his wife) fell in love over a game of Rummikub with the Israeli desert. Shortly after their encounter, Margreeth revealed the game to her family in her home country Holland. The two of them dropped everything and followed a call that changed their life. To cut a long story short, Adi quit his career as a mechanical engineer, married his love, traded his car for 500 games, moved to Holland and together with his wife, began selling board games on the street, because the conventional retail trade rejected their offering. Despite obstacles on the way, by applying grass-root marketing they popularized this one single game among Dutch people. Their persistence and efforts paid off, consequently setting and holding a world record in quantity of a single game sold per capita in one year. The extensive efforts eventually formed the solid foundation for the organization as it stands today with offices and distributors around the globe: serving 1.5 billion consumers worldwide. Goliath currently owns and operates offices in France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Poland, Belgium, The Netherlands, USA, Canada, Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand.
