Amuz Distribution has been renamed as Just For Entertainment Distribution, after the distribution division has been integrated into the recently rebranded Just For Entertainment parent company following the company’s major June 2024 acquisition of the Just For Laughs.
Alex Avon, Chief Marketing Officer of Just For Entertainment, said: “Just for Entertainment (JFE) Distribution is a natural progression with our holding company. JFE Distribution is excited to expand on our 360 approach with global program distribution, monetization with FAST & OTT Channels, and more. Along with Zoé Crabtree our Distribution Director of Sales and Acquisition and Carlos Pacheco, Director of Monetization & OTT, we are continuing our mission of 'keeping the world feeling good' with sharing even more new television, comedy, and music programs that Just For Entertainment produces.”
