Dalian Talent Group (DTG) has just signed a European distribution agreement for its brand-new Disney candle and home fragrance collection with wholesale gift supplier Enesco Ltd.
With strong synergy in terms of customer base, Enesco has become a key strategic partner to DTG, covering its entire 70-strong Disney candle collection across the five franchises of this first phase launch, including Disney Princesses, Disney Villains, Disney Mickey and Friends, Disney Lilo & Stitch, and Disney Winnie-the-Pooh.
The partnership represents an exciting new chapter for all three brands. As a leading global licensor, Disney launches its new candle and home fragrance collection with DTG, supported by the first distribution partnership between Enesco and DTG: two companies equally committed to supporting and growing the independent retail channel.
DTG – which designs, manufactures and distributes branded and private label candles, home fragrance and personal care products – launched as a key Disney candle and fragrance partner in 2025 in EMEA. Each high-quality design is inspired by its Disney character’s story and personality.
“This is an exciting strategic partnership, combining as it does, the experience of Dalian Talent Group, the world’s leading candle manufacturer, with the Europe-wide distribution network and Disney experience of Enesco”
Enesco already manufactures and distributes other Disney collectables, figurines and home décor items to more than 3,000 partners – including card and gift retailers, homeware stores, garden centres and online retailers – in the UK and European markets and beyond.
Enesco UK is now responsible for selling and marketing the new collection to its partners in the UK, Ireland, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Austria, Switzerland and Portugal. Enesco France will supply the range to independent retail partners across the country, as well as to those in Italy, Spain and Malta.
Enesco sales director Greg Waters said: “This is an exciting strategic partnership, combining as it does, the experience of Dalian Talent Group, the world’s leading candle manufacturer, with the Europe-wide distribution network and Disney experience of Enesco. This beautiful and charming candle collection is a fantastic homage to everything Disney – featuring so many of the most beloved Disney characters with evocative scents and emotions that would have a place in any home.
“Add in our position as a global leader in the giftware and collectables market, and this new distribution partnership of Disney Home Fragrances will certainly support our mission to create and distribute the most imaginative gift solutions that celebrate life’s special moments and milestones. Feedback from our 3,000-plus partners across the UK and Europe has been immense, and we’re very excited about rolling out Disney’s collection to them.”
DTG CEO Hamish Morjaria commented: “We were actively looking for strategic partners for our new Disney collection who align with our strategy and retail base. Enesco is both well respected and well connected, and we’re delighted to be working together on this launch.
“Disney is a globally recognised, hugely popular brand and we’re delighted to have partnered with Enesco to distribute our lovingly crafted range of home fragrances, inspired by many of its most popular characters. We’ve been sure to craft a collection that ignites senses and elevates spaces across the world, and now we have a distribution partner in place to help us achieve this – creating a new wave of nostalgia amongst Disney fans.
“We’re very excited about the opportunities our strategic partnership with Enesco will create, and we hope that this will be the start of a fantastic long-term arrangement between our businesses. We’re working to secure similar global distribution strategic partnerships, with other suppliers, for Disney and our other many brands.”
DTG is in discussions to secure more strategic partners for Disney and its wider brand portfolio.
