About SABC

The South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) is South Africa’s public broadcaster. It provides 19 radio stations (AM / FM) as well as 5 television broadcasts to the general public of the country and beyond. SABC is one of the largest of South Africa’s state-owned enterprises.

SABC headquarters in Uitsaaisentrum, Johannesburg. In 1936, the African Broadcasting Company, owned by I W Schlesinger (a wealthy businessman), was sold to the SABC. SABC took over the African Broadcasting Company’s staff and assets. It maintained a state monopoly on radio until the launch in December 1979 of Capital Radio 604, then Radio 702 in 1980. Although the subscription-funded television service M-Net launched in 1986, the SABC had a monopoly on free-to-air television until the launch of e.tv in 1998.

The SABC was a radio service until the introduction of television in 1976. There were 3 main radio stations: the English Service (later known as Radio South Africa), the Afrikaans Service (later known as Radio Suid-Afrika and Afrikaans Stereo) and the commercial station, Springbok Radio.

SABC has been widely available in neighboring countries, including Lesotho, Swaziland and Botswana – these countries of which did not have television services of its own until 1988. However, after complaints from rights holders in Botswana, SABC encrypted its TV channels, thereby cutting off viewers in the country.

In 1998, the SABC began to broadcast 2 television channels to the rest of Africa: SABC Africa, a news service, and Africa 2 Africa, entertainment programming from South Africa and other African countries, via DStv. In 2003, Africa 2 Africa was merged with SABC Africa to create a hybrid service, drawing programming from both sources.

SABC aims to supply broadcasting and information services and services that are ancillary thereto, to the general public in the Republic of South Africa and beyond its borders. It also aims to achieve the objectives as set out in the Broadcasting Act 4 of 1999, as amended, (‘Broadcasting Act’) in accordance with the objectives set out in the independent Broadcasting Authority Act 153 of 1993, as amended, that are directly relevant to the Corporation.
