SWOT
PESTLE

The strategic analysis of Lego’s internal factors shows that strengths like Unique and addictive toy building concept with creative expression for kids, global presence, huge array of diversified products, movie franchise and association with top movies like Harry potter, Star Wars etc. are creating competitive advantages for Lego company over its competitors. However, every top brand has some weak spots, so does Lego company. Lego toys come with a pocket pinch and are affordable only by upper and higher middle-class society. Although the company makes robust investments in research to make their offerings innovative and unique, they are easily duplicated by local players who can offer them at a much cheaper price. The Lego analysis discusses these weaknesses in detail. External analysis of Lego company, has helped detect some factors that act as biggest opportunities to the brand. One such aspect is parental focus in skill enhancement and experiential learning for their children which is driving them to choose Lego sets, which is one of the biggest opportunity for Lego as a toy maker company.
