NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises announced the expansion of its productive footprint with the opening of a new production unit in Mexico City, operating as Telemundo Global Studios Mexico. Under the umbrella of Miami-based Telemundo Global Studios, the new production arm will increase the company’s on-the-ground production capabilities of scripted and unscripted content to meet the growing demand for Spanish-language programming in the United States and around the world.

“Our new Mexican team solidifies Telemundo’s presence across the Americas, building on our stature as the largest producer of Spanish-language scripted content in the United States. This new production arm will leverage our extensive production experience in Mexico together with the unparalleled know-how and robust infrastructure only NBCUniversal and Telemundo Global Studios can provide. Telemundo Global Studios Mexico will be a game changer for our industry as we continue to raise the bar with the best and most relevant Spanish-language stories delivered with the highest production quality,”  said Karen Barroeta, Executive Vice President, Production and Development for Telemundo Global Studios.

The new Mexico-based production unit is currently in pre-production of its first project for the network: the eighth season of the international ratings success “El Senor de los Cielos.”  The company’s Mexico production arm will significantly expand Telemundo Global Studios production capabilities and aims to provide a home for top creative talent to produce high quality content for Spanish-speaking audiences in the United States, Latin America, and the rest of the world.

Telemundo Global Studios produces over 800 hours of original content a year, including highly rated series and international successes such as “La Reina del Sur,” “Betty en NY,” and “El Señor de los Cielos,” among many others.
