Yemeï Prod

Founded in 2020 in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Yemeï Prod emerged from a simple but powerful observation: the outside world rarely sees the real Congo. The agency's founder, like many who have lived in the country, recognized that search engines and international media tend to reduce DRC to a set of negative statistics and stereotypes. Yemeï Prod was built to counter that narrative—one short film, one campaign, and one client relationship at a time. The agency’s name itself reflects a commitment to telling stories that are grounded in Congolese reality, not in foreign expectations.

A Different Kind of Storytelling

At its core, Yemeï Prod is a public relations and communications agency that specializes in creative, audiovisual storytelling. The agency takes pride in producing work that is 100% made in DRC, from pre-production through post-production, including original music. This local production model means that every project—whether a corporate video, a documentary short, or a brand campaign—is infused with authentic Congolese perspectives. Yemeï Prod works in both French and English, making it a natural partner for international organizations, NGOs, and businesses that need to communicate effectively within DRC or about DRC to global audiences. The agency’s approach is less about polished press releases and more about visual narratives that capture the country's beauty, complexity, and resilience.
