Mission statement

ONE Productions Ltd came into being with a mission statement to carry forward the marathon task entrusted by the Labour Party to Rainbow Productions. The new Company’s mission statement was the production of audio-visual programming of universal appeal to Maltese audiences. Its radio and television schedules were to include a mix and match of informative, educational and entertaining productions of the best possible production and content quality.

One Radio

The results were the high ratings registered in recent survey results. Super One Radio retained its position as the most popular local station, and by March 2000, One TV won the first place in the ratings list as the most popular television station in Malta. The audience has voted Super One Radio as the most popular radio station since it started broadcasting. This success in popularity ratings brought about increased business and a constant flow of talent that expressed its preference for Super One.

Super One Radio is the only radio station in Malta that transmits live on a twenty four hour basis. It was also the first privately owned radio station to be granted a license to broadcast by the Broadcasting Authority.

The challenge that ONE Productions now faces is to sustain this success story and to widen its audience base still further.
