Flame Distribution has signed factual sales agreements with various AVOD and SVOD platforms. “It’s great to see how AVOD and SVOD platforms are opening up lots of opportunities for distributors, and establishing relationships over a long period of time has been key to encouraging large volume deals,” said Fiona Gilroy, Content Sales & Acquisitions Director, Flame Distribution.

Collectively, the company will distribute a total of 289 hours worth of content through these package deals. “We work very closely with some amazing producers who are at the top of their game when it comes to factual content, so when we finalize deals with streaming services, it's extremely satisfying to know their programs are reaching new global audiences,” Gilroy continues.

EarthxTV has acquired the US rights from Flame to a 39-hour package which includes titles such as "Baboon Diaries," "Work on the Wild Side," "47 Below," "The Lion Queen," and "Food Fighter."
