About us

Shop Africantrends was established in 2018 by my mother when she couldn't find permanent employment as an accountant. The idea sparked when every time she wore her African Attire ladies would literally ask to buy them even as "pre-loved" outfit. This then gave her the idea of how African designs were then in high demand and she started selling from the boot of her car and then moved to flea markets. 

I then joined her and since 2020 we have been trying to grow the business more tapping into e-commerce and online market.

90% of our designs are tailor made in South Africa by our very own experienced tailors with materials being sourced from all over this beautiful continent of ours. We also source other ready made designs and accessories from countries like Tanzania, Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya and South Africa.

We are 100% Black Owned company and very privileged to be able to showcase and have many people wear our designs and accessories.
