FilmBox Channels Land on Ukraine’s VOLIA

NEW YORK: SPI International has revealed that seven FilmBox-brand television channels are now available through VOLIA, a leading provider of entertainment services in the Ukraine.

VOLIA's FilmBox package, which launches today, includes FilmBox Basic, FilmBox Arthouse, DocuBox HD, FightBox HD, Fast'nFunBox HD, FashionBox HD and 360 TuneBox. FilmBox-brand channels are distributed by Filmbox International, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kino Polska TV, whose majority stakeholder is SPI International.

"We are excited to bring top-quality entertainment content to VOLIA's viewers in Ukraine," said Berk Uziyel, the executive director at Filmbox International. "It is a true pleasure to expand our channel distribution footprint in Ukraine by establishing a partnership with VOLIA, the country's leading TV operator."

Victoria Tsomaya, the marketing director at VOLIA, added: "We are very happy to launch [a] cooperation with Filmbox International and see big mutual potential in this. Therefore we start deliberately with the capital of Ukraine—Kiev, home of the most demanding viewers to the quality of TV content. And after checking of the technical capabilities we plan to ensure by the end of the year the availability of the FilmBox channels package in all other cities of the country, where [the] company VOLIA operates."
