We are changing, for the better

 
Co-founder's statement on the rebrand

Big news! We are excited to announce that as of January 21st, 2022, we are rebranding with a new name and logo as part of the ongoing evolution of our company’s brand.
Over the last few months, we have poured our hearts and souls into creating a new image that accurately depicts who we are, at our core as a team, our ambition and where we want to go.

Why we're here

We started muthoni unchained, in late 2020,  because we had experienced the frustrating lack of access to authentic African crafts and the devastating effects of COVID-19 to the livelihoods of African artisans and creators.
With a vision for a better shopping experience for both customers and artisans, we set out to create a new way to purchase African crafts and to expand the opportunities available to African artisans and creators.

2022 and beyond

After an amazing year of exciting growth and evolution, offering new avenues to grow the creative and culture sectors in Africa,  we felt it is time for a change. 
Our startup has undergone a significant transformation in the last few months to become a leading digital solutions provider for the creative and culture sector in Africa. Our new identity has been designed to satisfy all the existing expectations of what our original mark stands for, while simultaneously moving the brand forward with the vision of creating an environment that promotes creative culture outputs; and the necessary infrastructure for growth and economic development.
To better reflect this mission and symbolize our future, we’re releasing an updated brand identity, which includes a new name, definition of our logo and colors .We also analyzed our values as an organization and created a brand identity that reflects those values.

The new message



Mawu Africa is our new brand promise to you. It is a youthful, fresh and confident new look; with bold type, refined colors and our most defining element: our dedication to the Creative and culture sectors in Africa.
