Beyond Rights places more than 600 hours of factual content in Benelux

Beyond Rights announces a raft of new deals in Benelux that will see more than 600 hours – mostly comprising long-running property, reality and engineering content - land with broadcasters across the region.

Lenneke de Jong, Beyond Rights’ SVP sales for Benelux comments: “The countries in the Benelux region may be relatively small, but they maintain a big appetite for the Beyond Rights’ content, especially for many of our long-running, returnable series such as 'Love It Or List it', 'Abandoned Engineering' and 'Highway Thru Hell'. As a result, we have built up excellent relationships with so many local broadcasters over time and are delighted that our series have become cornerstones of many leading channel brands in the region”.
