Keshet International has announced the completion of several content licensing agreements across CEE, expanding its distribution footprint in the region. These partnerships were finalized during this week’s Content Warsaw event.
The global distributor has secured new agreements with a range of broadcasters and platforms. These include Canal+ Polska S.A., Polsat, and Dolce Vita TV in Poland; Prima Group in the Czech Republic; TV3 Group in Latvia; TV2 Group in Hungary; and HRT Croatia.
Kelly Wright, KI’s Managing Director of Distribution, commented on the demand for their content. ‘Our English-language factual shows like Seven Wonders of the Ancient World and Hitler’s Treasure Hunters are proving popular across the board’. She also noted that factual entertainment titles such as Trucking Hell, Around the World by Train, and World’s Most Evil Killers ‘continue to travel widely’. Wright added, ‘we’ve loved meeting many of our clients in person in Warsaw this week’.
Among the deals, the docuseries Seven Wonders of the Ancient World (3×60’), co-developed with SandStone Global, continues its international expansion. New pre-sales for this series in CEE were completed with Canal+ Polska S.A. and Prima Group (Czech Republic). These add to previous sales to Channel 5 (UK), SBS (Australia), and Histoire TV (France).
In Poland, Keshet International finalized package deals with Canal+ Polska for titles including Dinner with Gavin Rossdale, Tale of the Sleeping Giants, Arctic Wildlife in Lapland, Dirty Home Rescue, and multiple seasons of Trucking Hell. Polsat acquired 100 Days that Rocked the Royals, Tale of the Sleeping Giants, and Hitler’s Treasure Hunters. Dolce Vita TV added Around the World by Train, Billionaire Resorts, The Great Gardening Challenge, and Mega Mansion Hunters to its programming.
For the Czech Republic, Prima Group pre-bought Seven Wonders of the Ancient World and licensed Hitler’s Treasure Hunters, Tale of the Sleeping Giants, and Around the World by Train. Latvia’s TV3 Group acquired over 50 hours of content, including Girlfri3nds, Around the World by Train, The Wonderful World of Crafting, and The Great Gardening Challenge.
