Who We Are?
Our Mission
Growth and Education. To provide Canadian children and their families with high quality, affordable products that add value and fun to learning about our country and the leaders who have helped shape it.
Nafekh Technologies Inc. (also with trade name – Naftech) started its distribution of action-figure toys in September 2001. Visibility to this type of quality product, coupled with demands from our customers for specific types of figures, convinced us that manufacturing our own line of toys was the next step to business growth and expansion.
As a manufacturer, our principle objective is to introduce quality products (namely toys). The company has so far experienced many successes since 2001 with the hockey industry (as noted in a recent publication of the Renney Sports news where Naftech was cited as being a player in introducing niche products back into the industry) and plans to continue this growth. In the area of education, Naftech plans to introduce its lineup of “Canadian Legends™ action figures that will focus on providing Canadians with accurate descriptions and accounts of significant events in our country’s history.
Canadian Legends Product Development
Destined to have as much of the product developed and made in Canada, we worked hard to :
- Research – Stories, images and depictions using National Archives of Canada
- Sculpting – once we had a collection of pictures and poses that we wanted to use, we worked with Canadian artists for the development phase of our figures. A special thanks to…
- Robert Blair, Gatineau, Quebec – who sculpted the Sir John A Macdonald Figure and the body of Sir Wilfrid Laurier.
- Claudio Setti, Toronto, Ontario – who sculpted the Sir Isaac Brock Figure, stand and sword and the head of Sir Wilfrid Laurier.
- Book and Graphics – While the product was being sculpted, we worked on the book(s) and all graphics and design with an excellent graphic artist and designer who created all the images and colours from scratch. A special thanks to…
- James Broden (Broden Creative), Montreal, Quebec – who designed the Canadian Legends Logo, all the artwork you see in the amazing storybooks, and the packaging design and layout.
