About Us

Umunde Marketplace is a global online platform dedicated to showcasing the talent, creativity, and craftsmanship of African fashion designers and artists to the world. Built on the principle of unity and shared prosperity, Umunde connects independent creatives from across Africa with a global audience, offering worldwide shipping while ensuring that every purchase makes a meaningful local impact.

More than a marketplace, Umunde is a movement. For every item sold, one dollar is donated to a charity chosen by the designer in their country of origin—supporting education, healthcare, community development, and social initiatives within Africa. By blending commerce with purpose, Umunde empowers designers, uplifts communities, and celebrates African talent on a global stage.
