The story of AMS
Step back, way back in time to 1938 when AMS Toys first took root in the fertile toy market of Nairobi, Kenya. Founded by the indomitable spirit Albert M. Sheridan, AMS swiftly grew in popularity, thanks to its dedication to detail and unswerving love for creating mini worlds of wonderment. One of the intriguing facets of AMS's history is the World War II period when toy production was momentarily repurposed for the war effort, underscoring their resilience and versatility. Today, we revel in its rich past, making each discovery feels like finding a new passage to childhood.
