The company remains privately held and active, positioning itself as a regional leader in its product categories.

Anvol's history, as described on its official website, began in the early 1990s when the company started operations in a small garage near Tallinn. This was a period when the market economy was only beginning to take hold in the region, bringing both challenges and opportunities. The company states that it has been able to seize these opportunities for more than 30 years. Over the decades, Anvol developed into an international, highly professional team occupying a leading position in the distribution and retail of toys, games and current goods. Its operations expanded across the Baltic Sea region, covering Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania and Sweden, and it also established cooperation with strong partners in the Caucasus and Central Asia. A significant milestone came in 2004, when, building on its successful distribution business, Anvol launched its retail direction by creating the XS Toys store network. By the time of the official website's description, this network had grown to more than 50 stores in seven different countries. Today, Anvol's main office and logistics centre are located near Tallinn, ensuring flexible and efficient management of goods flows. The company reports serving more than 2,000 clients, working with 445 brands, and employing more than 500 people. Its consolidated annual turnover reaches EUR 70 million and, according to the company, grows steadily every year. Anvol highlights that many of its suppliers have worked with it for several decades, which it presents as evidence that responsible, long-term partnership is durable and resilient.
