Canal Panda is currently owned by Dreamia, a joint-venture between AMC Networks International Iberia and NOS.

Currently, Canal Panda is a Portuguese preschooler-focused channel, airing programs targeted at the 3-8 age range.

History

Canal Panda started operations under the name Panda Club on 1 April 1996 on cable operators in Spain and Portugal. In March 1997 the channel rebranded to the current name. Following the closure of the channel in Spain, in January 2001, the channel aimed exclusively at the Portuguese market.

Less than one year after becoming exclusive to Portugal, the channel started producing national content, that was often shown between shows. In December 2001, the channel premiered Panda Sport (remaining on air until the mid-2000s) as its first national production.[1]

In 2002, the channel's daily average surpassed 10,000 viewers. Much of its success owed to Japanese anime being shown mostly during its primetime slot (20:30 to 21:30).[2]
