Oznoz, the new online channel for bilingual kids, announces a partnership with Nelvana Enterprises, one of the world's largest distributors of children's content. With this deal, over 400 half-hour episodes of Nelvana's properties will be available to U.S. consumers in Arabic, Hindi, Mandarin, Japanese, French, German and Korean exclusively on Oznoz, increasing the platform's total offering to more than 2,000 hours of entertainment. 

The Oznoz VOD platform is a streaming channel and its content is also available on mobile devices such as iPad and Android. Top Nelvana titles include favorites such as Babar, Franklin, Beyblade, Bakugan, Scaredy Squirrel, Ruby Gloom and other children's classics.

Colin Bohm, Vice President, Head of Corus Kids said: "We're thrilled to be part of the top notch lineup on Oznoz. Kids and families in the U.S. will now have access to a multilingual library of beloved Nelvana series that are already enjoyed in many territories around the world."

This is the first time Nelvana's library will be available to U.S. audiences in so many languages. Nelvana joins top kids content providers Sesame Street and HIT Entertainment, which have also signed multi-year exclusive deals with Oznoz.

Aly Jetha, CEO of Oznoz said, "We are ecstatic that Nelvana has entrusted us with their children's brands and welcome them to the Oznoz family. More importantly, I'm thrilled that my daughter will now be able to enjoy Babar, Franklin and other great Nelvana titles in German!"

On Oznoz, customers can sample new releases by viewing the first episode for free. Shows can be streamed or downloaded for offline viewing via the popular Oznoz Video App for iOS and Android. Nelvana titles will be available on Oznoz.com beginning this month.
