Ánima Kitchent Renews Turkish Deal for Cleo & Cuquín

Ánima Kitchent has extended its agreement with the Turkish children’s channel Minika for Cleo & Cuquín for an additional four years.

Minika originally licensed seasons one and two of the series in 2021 and dubbed the show in Turkish. Under the new deal, Minika will retain the rights to both seasons and also acquired 30 episodes of the spin-off series Cuquín: Discover & Explore.

“At Minika Çocuk & Minika GO, we are dedicated to curating content that truly connects with audiences, and Cleo & Cuquín is a shining example of that vision,” said Elçin Koyuncu, chief content editor at Minika. “Its renewal marks not just a continuation of broadcast rights but a reaffirmation of our belief in stories that nurture imagination and bring families together. We’re delighted to see this exceptional series remain a cornerstone of our programming. Alongside the beloved Cleo & Cuquín, the new addition Cuquín: Discover & Explore further enriches our lineup, inviting children to learn, play and grow through discovery-driven adventures.”

Miguel Aldasoro, international sales and co-productions director at Ánima Kitchent, added, “We are delighted to renew our collaboration with Minika, a partner that has been instrumental in bringing Cleo & Cuquín to Turkish families. This extended partnership not only highlights the strong connection the show has built with audiences in Turkey but also opens a new chapter with the introduction of Cuquín: Discover & Explore to TV and VOD for the very first time. We look forward to continuing to grow the brand’s presence together and to sharing many more adventures with children and their families in the region.”
