Christine Service, senior vice president and general manager of The Walt Disney Company Africa, said the distribution renewal ensured that the company would be able to continue bringing its six 24-hour channels to audiences across the continent and marks another proud milestone in the long-term relationship with the MultiChoice Group.

“With a strong foundation of creativity, story-telling, exploration and multi-generational emotional connection, we are proud to continue offering DStv viewers the very latest from our high-quality, premium kids, factual and sports content,” said Service.
