Grande Studios

What Grande Studios does

Grande Studios is a Mexico City-based audio post-production and dubbing studio founded in 1983, serving Hollywood studios, streaming platforms, and localization vendors for Spanish Latin American content. The facility operates 22 recording rooms, 7 editing rooms, 6 mixing rooms configured for 2.0/5.1/7.1 surround, plus dedicated theatrical and Dolby ATMOS rooms, providing end-to-end audio services from recording through final deliverables for film, television, and streaming releases. Its workflow is organized around a proprietary "FIX IT IN PRE" methodology in which 60% of project work is completed in pre-production before recording, marketed as a quality differentiator versus industry norms.

The company generates revenue primarily through project-based professional services fees for enterprise clients including Netflix, Disney, Universal, Warner Bros, Paramount, and Lucasfilm, with a secondary channel of subcontracted work from major localization vendors such as Iyuno, Pixelogic, Zoo Digital, VSI, Deluxe, and Visual Data. A separate Academy division offers paid professional training — diplomas in dubbing production (100 hours, jointly with Universidad Anáhuac), voice acting (96 hours, with SAE Institute), children dubbing (36 hours), and Dolby ATMOS certification (12 hours, with Dolby Institute) — providing an ancillary education revenue stream and a structured talent pipeline. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales with quote-based pricing; the public-facing digital presence is limited to a bilingual website and WhatsApp contact, with no disclosed social media, app, or software product. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors, funding rounds, or M&A activity in the available data.
