Lego sales grew by 25% in 2015
Lego has secured its place as the world's best selling toy firm. Last year, sales leapt by 25% compared to 2014, and pre-tax profits came in at $1.3bn. The firm is family owned, and based in the small Danish town of Billund, but it sells products to more than 140 countries. Susannah Streeter asked Lego's chief financial officer John Goodwin, on the day that Barclays bank announced it his pulling out of Africa, how he views the continent in terms of growth and future opportunity.
