Asian Food Channel

provides support in helping AFC to develop locally produced programmes and tap local media talents.

The channel was co-founded by Singaporean Hian Goh and Briton Maria Brown, both of whom have extensive experience in business and media. Mr Goh was a technology and media investment banker and Ms Brown, was a producer with the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC). Both hold joint roles as managing directors of the company.

The Company's lead investor is Symphony Investment Holdings Limited, a strategic investment company that focuses on long-term direct investment opportunities in the Asia Pacific region. Symphony trades their shares and warrants on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange and have been operating in Asia since 1981.

The Company's headquarters is at fusionpolis, the newest purpose built media and technology building in the One-North business park in Singapore. The purpose built facility provides an integrated environment for the Company to handle all aspects of its operations, from post production to transmission logistics.
