ARY, formerly the Pakistani Channel was launched in the United Kingdom in December 2000 to cater to the growing demands of South Asian entertainment in the region. Within a short span of three years, the unique proposition and the content of the channel resulted in massive popularity and, in order to enable greater expansion and broadcast into other countries, the operations were moved to Dubai Media City. The uplink teleport station it uses is Samacom, a monopolising uplink provider based in the UAE.
This one-screen TV business grew into a network of channels beaming into over 130 countries. But not yet launched its transmissions in Australian continent. The network, at present, undoubtedly stands as one of the fastest growing Asian television networks in the world at the current moment.
The network was successful in acquiring a license for DTH operations in Pakistan, considered a milestone for media in the ever-growing broadcast television market of Pakistan. Since then the network started to commit itself to the continuous development of Pakistan’s media market. The network now boasts a potential market size of more than 20 million households.
