[1] CCI inherited Catalyst's alliance and partnership with Gullane Entertainment (previously known as The Britt Allcroft Company) that began in 1994,[2] with the company holding a 32% non-voting, 19% voting interest in the newly enlarged business, and would continue to operate as Gullane's Canadian affiliate and first-look distributor for any CCI programme or film.
It also allowed the expansion of Gullane's international catalogue to include Cambium's programmes.
[3] However, after Gullane announced to be purchased by HIT Entertainment in July 2002, the future relationship between the two companies remained uncertain.
[4] After the deal closed in October, CCI spent a few months under HIT until the company announced the end of their partnership with them in April 2003, purchasing out HIT's shares and half of Gullane's inherited catalogue, which were placed under the company's new distribution arm CCI Releasing.
[5][6] In September 2007, CCI announced that they would open up an office in Los Angeles, California.
