Food and entertainment brand Chefclub has launched a FAST channel in France and Switzerland following an agreement with Samsung TV Plus.
It’s the first time Chefclub has entered the AVOD streaming space.
The Chefclub channel launched in December 2021 with 50 hours of existing Chefclub content and a plan to add 10 hours of new content every month. Samsung TV Plus is free TV and comes pre-installed on all 2016-2022 Samsung Smart TVs.
It is also available for download from the Google Play and Galaxy Store on select Samsung Galaxy smartphones and tablets, offering viewers instant access to Chefclub along with an ever-growing number of free channels across multiple genres including news, sports and entertainment.
Antoine Chotard, leading Business Development for Samsung TV Plus France, commented, “With innovative storytelling, Chefclub has invented a unique and inclusive concept. Samsung TV Plus is proud to be the launch partner of their new FAST channel and to bring Chefclub’s original content to our French & Swiss audiences, directly to Samsung Smart TVs and Samsung Galaxy smartphones with Samsung TV Plus.”
Thomas Lang, CEO and Co-founder, Chefclub, commented, “Now in our sixth successful year, Chefclub has ambitious plans to extend our brand and enrich the experiences of our 100 million followers beyond social media. In our home market of France, a dedicated channel on Samsung TV Plus is a great way to further support our successful digital channels and is a testimony to our high-quality production.”
