WE ARE AFRIAccess

AFRIAccess is an online marketplace that supports the production and distribution of African inspired Art, Accessories and Lifestyle products.

Our Why

The story of AFRIAccess began with a powerful connection with young creatives living and hustling in Kibera, one of Africa’s largest slums. Witnessing their incredible talents and resilience despite the lack of support inspired us to visualise a concept that would empower African artisans.

We were moved by the diversity of cultures, the creativity, and the perseverance of the people we met, and the spirit of the trip embodied Kwame Nkrumah’s famous words, I am not African because I was born in Africa, I am African because Africa was born in me.
