OUR STORY

When Bruce Shadorf was 15 years old, he designed his first board game. Now, over 30 years later, Shadorf still has the fire to create unique products that help bring friends, families, classmates and colleagues together.

After graduating from the University of California, Shadorf started in the printing industry, eventually opening a plant in California. By 2000, the company had over 500 staff, including prepress specialists, graphic designers, machine operators, estimators, sales reps, etc. Managing clients, such as, Johnson & Johnson, La Cornue, USGA, AT&T, Dish Network and United Airlines.

In 2003 (after the US dot com bust), Shadorf began to seek out overseas manufacturing alternatives. And his passion for designing games and toys was revitalized with new business opportunities. In 2010, Komarc Holdings Limited was formed in Hong Kong, and Komarc Vietnam in 2015.

The recent pandemic has meant much less travel for all of the Komarc Team. During the last couple of years, Shadorf has worked out of Komarc’s office in Ho Chi Minh City, as well as, the company’s factory about an hour away in Long An.

Komarc's business headquarters is in Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong. Ideal for client meetings, showroom and access to manufacturing in both Vietnam and mainland China.

In addition to Vietnam and Hong Kong, Komarc has a China division, Wenzhou Komarc Toy Company. The Wenzhou team manages much of the tooling process, ABS prototyping, injection molding, die-casting, silicone, and other production. Our toy factory was built for both early and final stage production, including prototyping, product testing, assembly, finishing, sealing, packaging and quality control.

Komarcs’ locations (combined) offer a huge benefit to the brand and value to customers, offering clients a wide range of production capabilities and the most competitive prices in the world.
