Company Acquires International Sales Rights to The Travel Guy, Aire Yoga, and Kid Guides

Bender Media Services announced today that it will be expanding its distribution services to include all major worldwide markets in addition to Latin America, which the company has specialized in since its 2006 launch. According to Bender Media President, Susan Bender, they have already acquired international distribution rights to The Travel Guy (Australia, New Zealand, Far East. & Latin America only), Aire Yoga (all territories), and Kid Guides (all territories).

“We first came up with the idea to expand our sales operations globally after selling Caught on Tape to Nippon TV in Japan,” said Bender. “Since then, we’ve had a number of producers from around the world approach us about sales representation and felt that NATPE was the perfect market for us to announce this exciting new direction for the company.”
