Kicking off in December 2012, Filmhouse Cinemas Limited set out with a strategic plan to roll-out twenty-five cinemas over a six-year period. While Filmhouse Cinemas Limited has been around for a while with some branches across Nigeria, the Lekki Cinema Imax provides new technology, as the first of its kind in West Africa with a different projector, lights, and overall cinema viewing experience

With a clear and well-understood organizational structure, Filmhouse continually strives to appoint employees with requisite skills, knowledge, and experience for the roles they undertake.

IMAX Cinema is often used for special-venue film presentations. It offers an enhanced viewing experience for movie lovers who do not mind paying a premium for it. The company management team has over 100 years of combined cinema operation and development experience gained in England, Italy, USA, Spain, and Nigeria.

This goal stemmed from the company’s desire to be the number 1 cinema brand in Nigeria as the cinemas have over 10 cinemas in different locations in the country.
