Today, Hasbro announced that they’ll be leaving their long-time home and moving HQ to the Seaport in Boston after it was founded 100 years ago in Providence, Rhode Island, brining 100’s of jobs to Boston in a move that will see the transition of 700 staff into new headquarters by the end of 2026.
The toy and game maker will move to 400 Summer Street in the Seaport, near the Menino Convention Center. Hasbro will lease seven floors of the building.
“The new space will be home to at least 700 full-time employees expected to transition from Rhode Island to Boston by the end of 2026,” the company said in a statement Monday afternoon, ending a year of speculation about it’s future in Rhode Island.
“The company plans to continue to support Hasbro Children’s Hospital with annual donations and will keep recruiting from Rhode Island’s colleges and universities,” the company said.
