Peppa Pig is broadcast in 180 countries and translated into over 40 languages, and as the profile of the property has accelerated around the world, Peppa Pig World in Hampshire, the UK continues to welcome increasing numbers of international visitors from all corners of the globe bringing a positive uplift to UK tourism as a whole.

To celebrate naming Peppa Pig as one of our super brands, it seemed only fitting to travel to the home of Peppa Pig to commemorate the start of our partnership. We are thrilled to give the more than 600 million annual active consumers on our China marketplaces the opportunity to enjoy special discounts and promotions on Peppa Pig merchandise.
We're delighted to be extending our partnership with Alibaba by working with Tmall on this hugely exciting commercial opportunity, said eOne's Ami Dieckman, Senior Vice President, Family & Brands.
