Jumbo S.A. is a Greek based retail company whose principal activity is the distribution of children's toys, baby items, stationery, seasonal products and home items.

Jumbo was started in 1986 exclusively as a toy and console games chain with only one store until 1989, at Glyfada. In 1998, Jumbo began its international operations with Cyprus and followed by Bulgaria in 2005. By 2006, Jumbo had 40 stores in Greece alone. Since the early to mid-2000s, Jumbo changed direction towards everyday products targeted for the whole family.
