Fix & Foxi joins Vodafone line-up along with extended VOD content

Vodafone Deutschland has added Your Family Entertainment AG’s (YFE) children and family channel Fix & Foxi TV to its pay TV line-up and has extended its existing video-on-demand agreement with the German kids programmer.

From the end of February 2020, Fix & Foxi will be added to Vodafone’s Giga TV TV offering as part of the HD Premium Plus package.

The pair have also agreed to extend the content offering available in Vodafone’s video-on-demand packages.

YFE will add children’s series in several foreign languages, including English, French, Arabic, Turkish, to Vodafone’s VOD offering as a result of the agreement. YFE said it can draw on a portfolio of more than 3,500 half-hour shows of high-quality, non-violent children programmes in multiple languages.

“We have reacted quickly to market requirements and can now offer both non-linear VOD content and our linear TV channel Fix & Foxi TV in one package. We as YFE are a flexible and independent provider and are able to open our library of high-quality films and series for the whole family to the market, such as Heroes of the City, Urmelor The Little Bear. We are pleased to be able to entertain Vodafone customers and viewers with our children’s and family programmes,” said Armin Schnell, executive vice-president of sales at Your Family Entertainment AG.
