"My Little Pony"
Hasbro appointed WildBrain CPLG as its new sub-representative in the Nordics and Benelux, beginning January 1, 2020, and has now expanded WildBrain CPLG’s rights to include CEE and Turkey.
Under the agreement, WildBrain CPLG will now represent Hasbro’s merchandise, publishing, promotions, and short-term Location Based Entertainment business across Benelux, Nordic, CEE and Turkey regions.
“We are moving our direct business to an agent model in CEE and Turkey as both regions have tremendous growth potential for our Consumer Products business,” says Marianne James, Vice President of Hasbro Consumer Products in EMEA. “We believe that the strength of WildBrain CPLG to cover Benelux, Nordic, CEE, and Turkey will allow us to scale our efforts in a meaningful way. WildBrain CPLG will develop our strong portfolio of brands such as ‘Nerf’, ‘Monopoly’, ‘Play-Doh’, and ‘My Little Pony’.”
Maarten Weck, Executive Vice President & Managing Director at WildBrain CPLG, adds: “We are very pleased to extend our geographical footprint to represent Hasbro in CEE and Turkey, where we see tremendous opportunity for their leading family brands. The addition of these new markets to our remit strengthens our strategic relationship with Hasbro and gives us even more opportunity to synergise our European efforts, without losing the local touch.”
