About Us
Wholesale Designer & Character Rubber Ducks for Retailers
Welcome to Bud Ducks – the original name in designer and collectible rubber ducks. If you’re looking to stock wholesale character ducks and designer rubber ducks that stand out in your shop, you’ve come to the right place. Perfect for gift shops, souvenir stores, toy retailers, museum shops, and online sellers, Bud Ducks bring colour, humour, and collectability to every display.
The Original Collectible Rubber Duck Brand
Bud Ducks are probably the oldest and most recognised range of collectible rubber ducks in the world. First produced in 2005 by creator Simon Pithie of the Design Room Group in South Yarra, Australia, Bud Ducks were designed to capture the icons and trends of modern popular culture. Each duck is cool, colourful, fun, and funky – a miniature expression of creativity and style with a touch of British humour.
Unlike standard bath toys, Bud Ducks are collectible pieces that represent pop culture themes, fashion, and personality. The range quickly became a global phenomenon, appearing on TV shows such as Big Brother and Extreme Hair Wars, and earning its place as the world’s most famous designer rubber duck collection.
The Bud Ducks Legacy
Since acquiring the Bud Ducks brand in 2016, our family business – together with our European partner – has stayed true to the creative spirit that made Bud so popular. We continue to introduce exciting new duck designs while keeping many of the beloved original classics that collectors adore.
Over the years, Bud Ducks have built a loyal following. Some collectors own hundreds of designs, and even we occasionally rediscover forgotten models from the early days. This ongoing variety and charm make Bud Ducks one of the most sought-after collectible duck brands worldwide.
Luxury & Deluxe Ranges for Every Retailer
Our Luxury and Deluxe ranges are crafted in both standard 10cm and mini 6.5cm sizes.
- Luxury Ducks share the same classic mould with unique decorative finishes.
- Deluxe Ducks feature distinctive shapes, hats, hair, and fine details that make each one truly individual.
All Bud Ducks are produced to a premium quality standard, designed for display and collection rather than use as bath toys. (While they can be enjoyed in water, we can’t guarantee they’ll float upright due to their artistic moulds!)
Eco-Friendly, Collector-Focused Packaging
We’ve listened to our collectors and improved our packaging. Bud Ducks now come in resealable PET packaging that protects the duck and can be opened without damage. The card inserts are recyclable, and many ducks now include a plugged base to prevent water entry. These thoughtful touches make Bud Ducks a joy to display and collect – and ideal for retail presentation.
Retailers can easily display Bud Ducks on shelves or hang them using the built-in hole in the packaging or on display stands – perfect for eye-catching store merchandising.
