Rebranding

MTVNLA's Brazilian operations, prior to the rebranding as VIMN The Americas, were called Viacom Networks Brasil, since Abril, the parent company of MTV Brasil, has the exclusive rights to the MTV brand in that country, though, from October 2013, VIMN The Americas assumed over again the MTV brand in Brazil and relaunch the channel, currently a broadcast network, as a cable channel. Viacom International Media Networks The Americas has announced the more localization of content on VH1 and Nickelodeon for Brazil, and Nickelodeon and MTV channels for Argentina and Mexico.
