“We are honored by this recognition because it means that consumers see
our brand as a trustmark, and we take that responsibility very
seriously,” said Brian Goldner, chairman and CEO, Hasbro, Inc. “We
challenge ourselves daily to look beyond Hasbro’s own interests for
opportunities to do what’s right – and create an enduring, positive
impact within our industry and our world. We could not have achieved
this honor without the passion, dedication and ingenuity of our
employees, and their commitment to our shared purpose, to make the world
a better place for children and their families.”
Reputation Institute's RepTrak® model is the gold standard
for reputation measurement, providing a one-of-a-kind measurement of how
the public views the world's best-known companies. The RepTrak®

industries and more than 55 countries for more than 7,000 companies. The
