Venevision International is a Spanish-language Entertainment company with more than 30 years of experience in TV programming production and distribution, besides participating in other segments of the market.

The company opened doors in 1971 under the name Teverama Florida along with Radio Caracas Television as distributors of Venezuelan programming abroad. After a split from RCTV (which formed Coral Pictures) was renamed America Television Inc. and finally in 1987 the company took the name of Venevision International. As a distributor of television programming, VVI is one of the two largest companies in Spanish language.〔A Companion To Television Janet Wasko 2005.
