Cinar opens The Cookie Jar

MIP NEWS - Canadian animation house Cinar has rebranded itself as The Cookie Jar Entertainment following the successful takeover of the company by ex-Nelvana execs Toper Taylor and Michael Hirsch.

Alongside TD Capital Canadian Private Equity Partners, Taylor and Hirsh (left) paid $144m for the company, which is now housed within 4113693 Canada Inc, the holding company for the ex-Nelvana duo.

Hirsh and Taylor first revealed their deal to buy Cinar back in October 2003, and after the deal won legal and shareholder approval last month chairman Robert Després and ceo Stuart Snyder have quit the firm.

Now with the new management and new name, the company has drawn a line under the events of the past two years, which saw the old Cinar embroiled in a number of legal scandals and boardroom rows.
