Kanal D International’s Kerim Emrah Turna & Mikaela Pérez

Kerim Emrah Turna, executive director of Kanal D International, and Mikaela Pérez, sales executive for LatAm and Spain, met with TV Drama to discuss the strengths of the company’s content offering and the rapid take-up of Kanal D Drama.

With NATPE Miami just around the corner, distributors of Turkish dramas have been keeping a close eye on the continued demand coming out of Latin America. Kanal D International has found brisk business in this part of the world with its Turkish programming, be it classic dramas or series with touches of romantic comedy. It has also been successfully rolling out the Kanal D Drama channel across LatAm and even into the U.S. Hispanic market, in partnership with THEMA. And Kanal D has global aspirations when it comes to the channel’s reach, with ambitious plans for the year ahead.
