MiniZoo emerged as the natural online progression of a family toy business that originated as a 'brick & mortar' store in Coffs Harbour, Australia in 2004. Over the years, a growing enthusiasm for collecting realistic miniature animal figures has been observed, attracting customers from far and wide to the store.

Many of the facilities are accessible, and the animals can be experienced and photographed without the interference of bars. For those who haven’t had enough after visiting the zoo, they can also visit the nearby Hof Botanical Garden for free.
