Located on the hilltop of Hermitage, Mont Fleuri, the SBC owns and operates 3 Television channels namely SBC1, SBC2, and SBC3.
Radio in the Seychelles was introduced in 1945, when the archipelago was still a British colony; it broadcast for just one hour a day and was initially operated by the Department for Education using the facilities of the telecommunications company.
The first regular broadcasts, however, aired from 20 July 1965 with the official foundation of Radyo Sesel, equipped with a studio in Union Vale, near the capital.
[2] In September 1966, Radyo Sesel made his debut in outdoor broadcasts on the occasion of the colonial governor's opening of the National Show, the country's main celebration.
[3] On May 30, 1971, an explosion occurred at Radyo Sesel's studios in Union Vale, caused by a demolition charge, which totally destroyed the transmitters.
[4] In 1977, two years after the country gained independence, Radyo Sesel was equipped with its first outdoor vehicle, which made it possible to carry out live programs such as Tea Time Music.
The staff was enriched by the arrival on the scene of new names such as Douglas Cedras, Jeris Moses and Marie-Cécile Medor, who led from various places in Mahé island.
[7] On June 28, 2018, SBC switched to digital television technology, bringing its bouquet to 10 TV channels and 4 radio stations, all free.
