From 1991 to 1994, the company was part of the “Jacques Antoine et Compagnie” group (JAC) created by the famous game show producer Jacques Antoine. Between 1995 and 2003, it belonged to the Studio Expand group.[1]
They designed programs such as Fort Boyard in 1990 for Antenne 2 and La Carte aux trésors in 1996 for France 3. The predecessor of La Carte aux trésors is La Chasse aux trésors, the French version of Treasure Hunt.
Thereafter, from February 2006 to 2010, the group Marathon Media, known for animated television series such as Totally Spies! and Marsupilami, which recovers ALP. Between 2010 and 2016, the company belonged to Zodiak Media, the third independent audiovisual group in the world.
Following the merger of Zodiak Media and Banijay Group in February 2016, Banijay Group (which then owned ALP) became one of the world's leading content producers.
