Nigerian Content. Global Reach.
Lufodo Distributions handles licensing, copyright negotiation, and broadcast rights for Nigerian and African creative works.
The unit
Getting African work to the audiences that want it.
Lufodo Distributions is the arm of the Group that handles the commercial life of finished content — the rights, the licences, the agreements and the routes to market.
It develops feature film distribution strategies, obtains broadcast licences, negotiates copyright and acquisition agreements, develops channel programme grids, sources and outsources content, and markets and distributes media products to platforms, broadcasters, commercial premises and local consumers.
The unit works both for Lufodo's own slate and for third-party rights holders — independent producers with finished work and no route to market, and broadcasters and platforms looking for African content with clean rights.

Who we work with
Rights holders, producers and platforms
If you hold rights in Nigerian or African work and need a route to market — or you are a broadcaster or platform looking for African content with clean, negotiable rights — the distributions team is the place to start.
Lufodo Distributions sits inside a Group that also produces, so it understands what a producer needs from a distributor: honest terms, clear reporting, and a realistic view of what a title is worth.
