London, UK – WildBrain CPLG, a trusted licensing partner for leading brands worldwide, continues to grow its successful relationship with Hasbro, a leading games, IP and toy company. Announced today, WildBrain CPLG has added France to its representation of Hasbro’s portfolio of iconic brands, including PEPPA PIG, MY LITTLE PONY, TRANSFORMERS, NERF, PLAY-DOH, DUNGEONS & DRAGONS, MAGIC: THE GATHERING, and all Hasbro Games brands, including MONOPOLY, CLUEDO, TWISTER, and TRIVIAL PURSUIT.

Building on WildBrain CPLG and Hasbro’s longstanding five-year partnership, the new France representation expands WildBrain CPLG’s existing representation of Hasbro’s portfolio in Italy, Central and Eastern Europe, Benelux, the Nordics, Turkey, and India, managing all key merchandising categories, including apparel and accessories, arts and crafts, homewares, food and beverage, health and beauty, electronics, pet supplies, toys, and more.

Pau Pascual, SVP, Commercial, the UK, Europe and the Americas, WildBrain CPLG, said: “Our well-established relationship with Hasbro is built on the strong foundations of our ‘glocal’ expertise—global strategy and local execution—which enables us to forge best-in-class licensing programmes. The addition of France to our representation is testament to the success we’ve had to date in bringing these beloved brands to life for fans in EEA, Turkey and India. It continues to be a hugely exciting year for Hasbro’s franchises, with the recent announcement of the new addition to PEPPA PIG’s family arriving in June, and MONOPOLY’s 90th anniversary celebrations, and we’re looking forward to exploring new opportunities ahead.”

Marianne James, Senior Vice President, Global Licensing at Hasbro, said: “Over the past five years, our work with WildBrain CPLG has been instrumental in expanding the reach and resonance of Hasbro’s portfolio across EEA, Turkey and India. Their deep market insight, extensive network and strong local execution make them an invaluable partner. Extending our relationship to include France is a natural next step, and we’re confident it will unlock even greater potential for our brands and foster lasting consumer connections across new categories and markets.”
