This launches Akoroko’s year-end review series of reports analyzing 2025 in African screen sector (film, TV, digital media) activity. The first report breaks down the year in box office data, continent-wide.
The reality is that there are only a handful of countries with weekly, monthly, or annual reporting; others are partial or irregular, and a much larger layer has no public tracking at all.
Context is key, and every global “Africa” figure you see is often built from a very narrow slice of the continent, and therefore incomplete.
The Akoroko 2025 baseline maps what can be measured, including what’s partial, and where there are gaps — and why “African box office” can only be treated as a range, not a single, definitive figure.
The report went out to Akoroko Premium subscribers last week. To receive it, and more exclusive African screen sector analysis and insights, subscribe now (7-day free trial and localized pricing available in select markets): https://akoroko.com/localpricing/
