Your Family Entertainment AG (YFE) announced today that its popular children’s channel Fix&Foxi will be part of Africell’s upcoming mobile TV service.
Fix&Foxi TV is YFE’s fast-growing international children’s channel and is currently available in dozens of countries on four different continents. It is the world’s first TV channel named after well-known comic heroes and delivers entertaining and educational content to children of all ages and their families. The Fix&Foxi Channel owes its success to its high-quality blend of 2D, CGI-animated and live-action TV programs. All content is fun, visually rich and communicates positive values. It includes classic characters, first runs and brand-new shows with great storytelling to encourage childrens’ imagination.
This formula makes it a perfect fit for Africell’s new mobile TV service, which has been piloted in The Gambia and will soon launch in Sierra Leone and Democratic Republic of Congo. The platform features a variety of channels, covering a wide range of topics from movies and documentaries to music and learning programs. Africell is a mobile network operator with more than 12 million customers in four African countries.
Armin Schnell, Executive Vice President Sales at Your Family Entertainment AG says: “We are proud to partner with a renowned company like Africell and to continue expanding the Fix&Foxi Channel into new territories. We are looking forward to bringing our high-quality and learning-based content to new viewers in Africa.”
Nadia Moati, Africell Operations Director, says: “We are always looking for ways to bring more and better content to our subscribers. Adding Fix&Foxi to our mobile TV platform is a natural choice because it raises the overall quality of the platform and will give millions of children the opportunity to enjoy fun, imaginative and educational programming”.
