“As the Squishmallows brand evolves, we’re focusing on impactful category collaborations that entertain and delight our millions of fans in authentic, meaningful ways,” says Jazwares’ Executive Vice President Judd Karofsky. “Our licensing partners are embracing the Squishmallows brand DNA and we can’t wait to launch unique new merchandise to a wide range of retailers and consumers this year and beyond.”
New licensing partners for the Squishmallows brand include Bioworld (apparel, loungewear, headwear, bags, socks, collectible accessories); Big Mouth (pool floats, cooler bags, beach chairs, pop-up tents); BBC International (footwear); Franco Manufacturing (bedding, accessories, throws, beach towels, bath blankets); Fashion Angels (stationary and back-to-school accessories); Parkside Collectibles (trading cards); and Primary Colors (gummy and candy products).
