Warner has announced the launch of Warner Music South Africa.
The move comes after WMG bought the remaining share of the Warner Music Gallo Africa joint venture it had with the territory’s Gallo Records.
The South African arm will handle international repertoire releases across the African continent while WMG is also looking to invest in domestic talent, according to Billboard.
Billboard also understands that Sony Music will handle distribution for Warner’s South African releases.
