Jazwares takes its place on the TIME100 Most Influential Companies listing

Jazwares has been named to the prestigious fourth annual TIME100 Most Influential Companies list, highlighting companies making an extraordinary impact worldwide. 

TIME recognised Jazwares as a ‘Titan’ for reinvigorating the plush toy category with its popular Squishmallows brand.

“At Jazwares, we’re passionate about bringing imagination to reality through multigenerational brands such as Squishmallows and our unparalleled commitment to giving back to the communities where we work and play,” commented Judd Zebersky, founder and ceo at Jazwares. “We are honoured to be recognised as one of the TIME100 Most Influential Companies, a testament to the dedication and creativity of our 1,400 employees and our collective mission in bringing joy to millions of kids, families, and fans around the world.”

To assemble the list, TIME solicited nominations across sectors, and polled its global network of contributors, correspondents and outside experts.

Then TIME editors evaluated each on key factors, including impact, innovation, ambition and success. The result is a diverse group of 100 businesses helping chart an essential path forward.
