Company Profile:
 Vinasha
Productions Limited of Bakau is an independent film producer and
media consultancy company. It describes itself as the
"Birthplace of Gambian Cinema" in the country's nascent
movie industry. This is to a large extent true as they
have had over 10 years of local broadcasting production with numerous
 credits to their name. However, much of that production is in the form
of videos for the retail market. This is due to the dearth of cinemas
in The Gambia.
The company is also among the leading media consultants,
planning, purchasing and advertising agencies, and continues to provide Total Media Solutions to major
institutions in The Gambia. Some of these organisations are Standard
Chartered Bank, Gamtel, Gamstar Insurance, Shell, Concern Universal,
Punjabi Trading and Trust Bank Ltd., to name but a few.
In 2007 they signed a 2-year broadcast contract with
GRTS.
