MiPROMO Limited

Accra-based YouTube MCN and digital distribution company, independent, founded by Nii Abbey Mensah.

Based in
Accra, Ghana
Founders
Nii Abbey Mensah (Anthony Nii Abbey Mensah), with Kweku Akuamoah named in one account of the company's 1998 formation

MiPROMO Limited is a Ghanaian digital distribution and rights-management company based in Accra. Its services span YouTube multichannel-network (MCN) rights management and Content ID/royalty claiming, digital and video distribution, social media marketing, branding, event activation and booking. Sources checked describe MiPROMO as a services and distribution intermediary; none states that it holds or has held any artist’s master recordings or publishing copyrights.

The company is independent and privately held. Its founder, Nii Abbey Mensah, also operates GhanaMusic.com and StyleAfrique.com. No parent company, outside investor or equity stake is disclosed in any document reviewed, and Ghana’s Registrar General was not searched independently to confirm ownership beyond MiPROMO’s own self-description. Sources disagree on when the company was founded: MiPROMO’s LinkedIn page gives 2016, while a Wikipedia biography of Mensah states a 1998 incorporation alongside Kweku Akuamoah, and a Ghana Yello directory listing is dated 2011. That contradiction is unresolved and recorded here rather than picked.

MiPROMO entered a distribution partnership with Virgin Music Group in October 2025 to work with Ghanaian talent. A separate, non-primary feature describes the company as managing YouTube digital rights for artists including Shatta Wale, Sarkodie, Stonebwoy and Kofi Kinaata, a claim this record notes but has not independently corroborated.
