Toy's Factory Inc. (株式会社トイズファクトリー, Kabushiki-gaisha Toizu Fakutorī) is a Japanese record label founded in the late 1980s as a subsidiary of the entertainment company VAP, based in Japan.

History

On May 30, 1990, the second production department at VAP, an entertainment company under Nippon Television, was spun-off and established as Toy's Factory Records. In 1995, the name was changed to its current name. VAP remained the label's distributor until April 1, 2021, when it switched to Sony Music Solutions.[3]
