Global Company Profile Aug 2024

The year 2023, particularly around the movie’s summer release, saw the hype levels for the Barbie film move into overdrive. However, while Barbie contributed to a strong performance by Mattel in 2023, Hot Wheels was recording stronger percentage growth and the return of Disney Princess and Frozen provided a major boost to actual sales growth. Mattel is expected to continue expanding into the entertainment world with more movies, films and console/PC games featuring its IPs in the coming years.
