RNS Number : 7146B Zinc Media Group PLC 02 October 2025
2 October 2025
Zinc Media Group plc
("Zinc" or the "Group")
Launch of Zinc Distribution
Zinc Media Group plc (AIM: ZIN), the award-winning television, brand and audio
production group, announces the launch of Zinc Distribution marking a key
milestone in the Group's strategy to enhance revenues from its owned IP
(intellectual property) and Programme sales.
Distribution is a core pillar in the Group's growth strategy producing high
margin IP revenue streams through its quality back catalogue. Heading to
MIPCOM this October, the team will be showcasing this extensive catalogue in
Cannes, featuring titles such as: Terror at 30,000 Feet, Police Interceptors
and Stonehenge: The Lost Circle Revealed.
The launch of Zinc Distribution builds on the success of the acquisition of
Raw Cut last October, and its established in-house distribution arm. With many
years of experience selling its programmes direct to worldwide broadcasters -
including the Channel 5 break-out hit Police Interceptors whose 300 hours have
been sold across Europe and Australasia - along with Zinc Media Group's
extensive back catalogue and development pipeline, Zinc Distribution is
positioned for substantial revenue growth and global expansion.
The venture will enhance Zinc Media Group's IP exploitation in both worldwide
linear sales and digital opportunities in the UK and across the globe. With 11
labels the fast-growing production house produces hundreds of hours of new
content each year.
Historically, content has been placed with a variety of distributors resulting
in Zinc shows placed in more than 150 territories and Zinc Distribution aims
to augment these successes. By centralising the group's distribution activity,
Zinc Distribution will strengthen relationships with existing distribution
partners, forge new partnerships with broadcasters and digital platforms, and
drive programme sales and revenue streams across digital content, format
licences and merchandising opportunities.
Mark Browning, CEO Zinc Media Group said, "The launch of Zinc Distribution
marks the culmination of years of investment in content creation and
distribution, enabling us to harness the power of our extensive back
catalogue. We're all excited to be able to control more of our IP going
forward and manage global sales of our content. In addition, by capitalising
on our rich library of IP, we're well-positioned to lead in the ever-evolving
digital distribution landscape and drive sustainable long-term growth".
