Endemol France (formerly known as Case Productions and Endemol Shine France) is a French production subsidiary of Banijay Entertainment.
History In Spring 1994, television presenter Arthur and producer Stéphane Courbit launched two French television production companies named CASE Productions which is an acronym of its full name "Courbit Arthur Stéphane Essebag" and Arthur Stéphane Productions (ASP) to produce game shows & talk shows to the French broadcasters.
In 1998, it was announced that Dutch audiovisual production group named Endemol had acquired a 50% stake in French production company ASP/CASE Productions from Arthur and Courbit.
On 8 December 2006, Endemol announced that they would reacquire their French division Endemol France from their former parent Telefónica. By 9 January 2007, the Dutch-based European entertainment company had made a deal with their former parent company Telefónica to buy back their French outfit which would become a division of the reunited Dutch-based entertainment giant.
