TV4 Entertainment & Flame Media Pact for Food-Focused Streamer

TV4 Entertainment is set to launch Food Feast TV, a new food-focused OTT streaming offering that will feature thousands of hours of content from Flame Media.

Food Feast TV will air shows from across the globe, including A Taste of Travel, Food Safari, Saturday Kitchen and Inside Lyndey’s Kitchen. The diverse programming lineup features well-known talent such as Jack Stein, Yotam Ottolenghi, Luke Nguyen, Donal Skehan and Lyndey Milan.

The new offering is the result of a global distribution agreement between Flame Media and TV4 Entertainment, and the channel is also slated to feature titles from other TV4 Entertainment content partners, delivering hundreds of hours of never-before-seen content from the U.K., Europe and Australia to U.S. audiences. The new direct-to-consumer streaming channel is scheduled to launch in early 2020 with a web offering and apps on all major mobile and connected TV platforms, including iOS, Google Play, Apple TV, Amazon Fire and Roku.

John Caldon, chairman and CEO of Flame Media, said: “This strategic partnership allows us to access TV4 Entertainment’s unparalleled distribution and market expertise to quickly reach a large untapped audience with Flame Media’s expansive library of high-quality shows. Food Feast TV will help a passionate audience discover, enjoy and fall in love with an exciting collection of food-focused programming.”

Jon Cody, TV4 Entertainment founder and CEO, commented: “We are thrilled to continue to expand our partner relationships with global industry leaders like Flame Media to super-serve viewers with a unique content offering not available anywhere else. Food Feast TV represents the continued and accelerated adoption of our proven business model that adds value for content owners, producers and distribution channel partners alike.”
