Disguise Strengthens its Position with Pokémon Company
Disguise, Inc., a renowned division of JAKKS Pacific, Inc. (NASDAQ: JAKK) based in Poway, California, is excited to announce an expansion of its collaboration with The Pokémon Company International. This new multi-year contract grants Disguise enhanced distribution rights, not only in North America but also in EMEA, ANZ, and several regions of LATAM. This significant agreement reinforces Disguise's leadership in the costume industry, enabling them to continue creating Pokémon-themed costumes and accessories for enthusiasts both at home and across the globe.
Growth of the Pokémon Costume Line
Since launching its first line of Pokémon costumes in 2019, Disguise has seen remarkable growth in sales and has broadened its offerings to include a diverse assortment of beloved Pokémon characters such as Bulbasaur, Charizard, and Squirtle. As demand for high-quality Pokémon costumes surges, this extended licensing deal empowers Disguise to capitalize on the ongoing popularity of these characters.

Now at Disguise, we recognize the opportunity to offer products for every fan, allowing them to choose their beloved Pokémon or the character that resonates with them,” she added.
