The East African media industry is in active transformation. Legacy broadcasters compete with digital-first publishers, podcast networks, and creator economies built on TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram. Advertising agencies, PR firms, production houses, and film studios serve both regional and international clients.

EABD lists television and radio broadcasters, newspaper and magazine publishers, digital media outlets, film and video production houses, advertising agencies, PR firms, and content creators with formal business structures. Verified profiles show portfolio work (with client consent), reach figures where applicable, and reviews from past clients.

About DR Congo

The Democratic Republic of the Congo is one of Africa's largest markets: more than 100 million people, the copper and cobalt belt of Haut-Katanga and Lualaba, the port of Matadi, and Kinshasa, a city of more than 17 million with a services economy to match. In the east, Goma, Bukavu and Bunia trade daily with Rwanda, Uganda, Burundi and Tanzania, and the country joined the East African Community in 2023.

EABD lists Congolese businesses in Kinshasa and across all 26 provinces, including Lubumbashi, Kolwezi, Goma, Bukavu, Kisangani, Mbuji-Mayi, Kananga and beyond. Browse by province, by town or by industry. Where a business is verified, EABD has confirmed its RCCM registration and contact details, which matters in a market where much of business still runs through personal introductions.
