AUCKLAND, 1 October 2012 – The Shopping Channel, New Zealand’s first and only dedicated retailing TV channel, will open for business tonight, broadcasting live from 7.00pm, on Channel 18 on both Freeview and Sky TV.
Alistair Duff, CEO of The Shopping Channel, says that today is an historic day for both retailing and broadcasting in New Zealand.
“The Shopping Channel is the
department store Kiwi women have always wanted in their
homes. We will bring a wide variety of brands to New Zealand
that wouldn’t normally be accessible to New Zealanders
with a great team of presenters, with familiar and new
faces, to sell the products."
The Shopping Channel
presenters include Monty Betham, Fiona McDonald, Candy Lane,
Lucy Gallaugher and Mike Puru, among others.
In
addition, The Shopping Channel will be hosting Hollywood
celebrity Eva Longoria live on air at 7.30pm this Thursday 4

Zealand.
