Walt Disney Parks, Experiences and Consumer Products is a business segment of The Walt Disney Company consisting of its theme parks and resorts, cruise line, vacation club, hotels, stores, merchandising, publishing and digital media, games and interactive experiences and The Muppets Studio.
Walt Disney Parks, Experiences and Consumer Products was formed as part of The Walt Disney Company’s March 2018 strategic reorganization with the merging of the former Walt Disney Parks and Resorts and Disney Consumer Products and Interactive Media segments. Parks and Resorts chairman Bob Chapek was named chairman of this new segment, who also previously served as head of Disney Consumer Products. At the time, the Consumer Products chairman position was vacant, as its former holder, James Pitaro, had been recently appointed as the new head of ESPN and co-chair of Disney Media Networks.
