With newly recruited in-house staff and distribution partners in LATAM, as well as distribution partnerships with Headstart and Party Australia in Australia, Disguise anticipates solid growth in these territories with the strong line up of brands that Hasbro has to offer.
“We look forward to bringing these power house brands from Hasbro/eOne to Latin America and Oceania. Our long-standing partnership with Hasbro/eOne continues to grow and as a company we are prepared for this rapid trajectory into new territories. Our commitment to quality and our ability to design to regional market needs and price points has given us an edge allowing Disguise a full force global expansion,” said Tara Hefter, President and GM of Disguise, Inc. “PJ Masks has been very valuable to the Disguise pre-school portfolio and we are pleased to continue to lean into this line for 2022 and beyond.”
