Nigeria- Africa’s largest company by market value, Naspers, is planning to use new products and services to attract more customers to its $58-a-month television offering in Nigeria, Bloomberg reports.
The media company, which broadcasts English Premier League soccer and international dramas such as Game of Thrones in Africa through its Multichoice unit, pays for some content in dollars and is therefore vulnerable to exchange rate volatility, John Ugbe, chief executive officer of MultiChoice Nigeria, said last month.
Cape Town-based Naspers is in talks with telecommunication companies about increasing its mobile-television offering in Africa’s biggest economy, he said.
“A lot of the content cost is dollar based” and there is a need to increase sales, Ugbe said. “It is for us to continue to make the product better, more affordable and continue to offer options to our subscribers.”
