Disney Acquires Former Yamaha HQ in Cypress for $115M to Support Back-of-House Operations

Walt Disney Parks and Resorts U.S. Inc. purchased the 25-acre former Yamaha Motor Corp. USA headquarters in Cypress, California, for $115.29 million. The deal, which closed on Sept. 23, 2026, secures a major industrial and office complex just seven miles from the Disneyland Resort. Disney intends to use the site for non-guest-facing 'back-of-house' operations, such as laundry and costuming, rather than building a new theme park. Yamaha, which occupied the site since 1979, is relocating its U.S. headquarters to Kennesaw, Georgia, and will lease the property back from Disney through Dec. 31, 2028.

Georgia lands Yamaha’s U.S. HQ as California exit accelerates

Yamaha Motor Co. will relocate its U.S. headquarters from Cypress, California to Kennesaw, Georgia, with the move starting in late 2026 and wrapping by the end of 2028. The decision is part of a broader restructuring to improve profitability amid tariff-driven costs and a shifting U.S. market. Georgia already hosts Yamaha’s marine and motorsports operations and employs more than 2,300 people in the state, mostly at its Newnan factory.
