Community Manager at Bellafricana

Bellafricana is a tech-enabled community that provides a platform for creative entrepreneurs in the fashion, arts & craft, health & beauty, home & living, food produce & snacks industry, to gain visibility, increase sales, have the right business support and structure that gives them the capacity to grow their business.

When our founder Bukky Asehinde left her home country, Nigeria for 8 years of her life , she always yearned for a piece of home but could not find a proper platform that she could buy from. On moving back in 2012, the idea of creating a platform that bridges the gap between creative producers in these key industries earlier listed and their global consumers became her goal. And so, this quest started in 2014 where she tested running an eCommerce platform for about a year but later realised there were other underlying problems to tackle to make it a success.

The decision to build a community for creative entrepreneurs to get more visibility, more sales and provide business support which will help improve their business was born in 2016. The birthing process of the Bellafricana community idea, led her to think of the importance of a strong support system for creative businesses, hence why the community is called “creative family” and now referred to as “Home to creative entrepreneurs”. It was so intentional. With the long term focus of building the largest e-commerce platform for African creative products.
