You’re going to love this news. (And not just because we told you to.) Target and Netflix are teaming up for a unique partnership to create epic, exclusive products inspired by your fave Netflix-original show. There’s lots to come, but first up: We’re turning your world upside down with special “Stranger Things” gear.
“Netflix and the wildly popular programs they create have become part of our culture and our guests’ everyday lives,” says Mark Tritton, Target executive vice president and chief merchandising officer. “This unique partnership offers guests access to merchandise they’ll find only at Target, and while we’re getting started with ‘Stranger Things,’ our plans to expand deeper into the Netflix lineup will provide guests with ongoing newness and even more reasons to shop with Target.”
And the Netflix team is pumped, too: “We’re excited to connect fans with the shows they love,” says Shauna Spenley, Netflix vice president of marketing and consumer products. “The launch of our ‘Stranger Things’ merchandise with Target is part of a broader marketing approach that reflects the overall Netflix experience and we couldn’t imagine a better partner than Target.”
