The background of Mdundo

239 million in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) have access to the Internet through their mobile phones - a number that is expected to grow to 483 million by 2025 - equivalent to 39% of SSA's population. 30% of mobile phone users listen to music on their mobile phone, however this is primarily done through illegal downloads, similar to the situation in Europe and the US 15 years ago - and before music services such as iTunes and Spotify took over the market. Several factors contribute to the development in SSA now moving in the same direction as in the West where music is accessed to a greater extent through legal music services.

Mdundo's music service

Mdundo's music service can be accessed online through the website www.mdundo.com and through an Android app for mobile phones. Mdundo has over 5 million active users on both the website and through the app as well as over 20 million downloads and streams per month. The music service is available to users worldwide but Mdundo has its business focus in 15 countries in sub-Saharan Africa, including a commercial market focus in Tanzania and Kenya, where Mdundo started in 2013, and a marketing focus in Nigeria, Ghana and Uganda.
