Canal 4 is a private Costa Rican television channel, owned and operated by Repretel. It was the second television station acquired by Repretel in Costa Rica.

History

The station was acquired from TV Azteca, when the Mexican company decided to sell their Latin American television stations in Costa Rica, Guatemala, El Salvador and Chile to invest in their mobile services in Mexico. At the time of the sale, TV Azteca still owed money to original owners and responsible of Channel 9 operations. Since Repretel was sub-leasing Channel 9 from TV Azteca at the time, the process of the sale was seamless.[1][2]

Programming

Repretel 4 programming consists in kids shows, cartoons, anime, juvenile soap operas, daily nightly movie and Caso Cerrado.[3]
The station has low advertising demand and depends on infomercials and Repretel 6 ads to keep running.
