Sunset Entertainment & Media Company Strategic Restructuring to Put Creativity and Growth at the Forefront
NEW JERSEY, US - The Sunset Entertainment & Media Company announced the completion of a sweeping strategic restructuring this month, designed to place creativity at the heart of its operations, empower business leaders, and strengthen accountability across its global portfolio. The initiative also positions the company's streaming business for sustained growth, profitability, and industry leadership.
Under the new structure, Sunset operates through six primary divisions: the Sunset Entertainment & Media Company, the Sunset Music Company, the Sunset Radio Network, Sunset Vending Co., Sunset Technologies, and the nonprofit Sustainable Action Now.
Collectively, these divisions encompass three media outlets, ten radio stations, five retail outlets (two brick-and-mortar and three online), two record labels, a music company, and a live events division.
Leaders of each division now hold full operational and financial responsibility-including creative development, marketing, technology, sales, and distribution-while remaining accountable for driving efficiencies and delivering results globally.
"For nearly 20 years, Sunset has been a pioneer in unique, classic, and colorful releases fueled by innovation, storytelling, and creativity," said Don Lichterman, CEO and Chairman of Sunset Entertainment & Media.
"With the right infrastructure and proprietary technology in place, we are entering a new era of growth. This restructuring restores creativity to the center of our company, enhances accountability, strengthens results, and ensures the quality of our content and experiences across all platforms."
Global Content Leadership, Streaming Expansion, News & Media
Lichterman oversees Sunset's full portfolio of entertainment media and content businesses worldwide, including streaming, film, television, sports content, products, and live experiences.
Streaming remains a top priority, with Sunset's proprietary platform consolidating over 18,000 live channels, hundreds of thousands of on-demand movies and series, and 24/7 curated movie channels featuring the most recognized brands, actors, and franchises in film and TV.
Sunset's partnerships with leading global streaming services-including Paramount+, Netflix, Disney+, ESPN+, NFL Network, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Starz, Cinemax, and HBO/HBO+-enable direct audience engagement, connecting fans to the company's stories, characters, and franchises.
"Our proprietary open-source technology is transformative, giving us an unprecedented advantage across all platforms," Lichterman said. "With the dedication of our business leaders, we are well-positioned to execute our strategic initiatives and drive sustainable growth."
Explore New Jersey is the #1 source for everything happening in New Jersey today-covering entertainment, live music year-round, stand-up comedy, theater, dispensaries, breweries and craft beer, wine and wineries, skiing, surfing, hiking, beaches, rivers, and mountains.
The company also provide exclusive, up-to-the-minute coverage on news, politics, sports, baseball, hockey, football, soccer, high school sports, the NJ Special Olympics, as well as shopping, boutiques, books, weather, travel planning, local updates, and much more every day.
