About Graco Brand
Graco was originally a manufacturer of car parts based in the US, but in the 50’s they started manufacturing juvenile products. They were the first to make an automatic swing for children, the Swyngomatic, in 1955 and then in 1987 came up with the first playpen, famously known as Pack’N’Play.
Today, Graco has a huge collection of children’s products, including car seats, strollers, play yards, baby swings, and high chairs, and boasts a worldwide market.
