Hasbro Moves HQ to Boston

Hasbro is relocating its corporate headquarters from Rhode Island to Boston, with at least 700 full-time employees expected to transition to the new base by the end of 2026.

The toy giant’s move to 400 Summer Street in Boston’s Seaport District is intended to help the company accelerate innovation, attract leading talent and drive growth in line with its “Playing to Win” strategy focused on play-driven engagement and partner collaboration. The new base will occupy seven floors across 265,000 square feet.

“Boston’s thriving business community, deep academic partnerships and cultural vibrancy, together with our Seattle team’s leadership in technology, creativity and innovation, give Hasbro an unparalleled foundation for growth,” said Chris Cocks, CEO of Hasbro. “Together, these offices will fuel the next chapter of Hasbro.”

“We are thrilled that Hasbro has chosen Massachusetts as the home of its new headquarters, and we’re ready to support the hundreds of jobs they will create here,” said Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey. “We’re proud to welcome this iconic company to Team Massachusetts—where we are number one for education, health care and innovation. I’m grateful for the leadership of Chris Cocks and his team at Hasbro, and for the hard work of my economic development team that helped make this possible.”

“I’m delighted to welcome Hasbro to its new home in Boston,” said Boston Mayor Michelle Wu. “The creativity and wonder at the heart of Hasbro’s work are also at the heart of our mission to make Boston a home for everyone—the safest major city in the country and the best place to raise a family, with opportunities for all to Connect(4) and Play(-Doh). We look forward to supporting Hasbro’s transition to Boston and partnership with the city.”

Hasbro will retain its Seattle hub for its gaming and digital business, alongside offices in Hong Kong, London, Mexico City and Montreal. Each plays a critical role in the company’s creative pipeline, digital innovation, and operations. These locations strengthen Hasbro’s ability to deliver world-class brands and experiences to fans and families around the globe.
