About us

A Marketplace for African Inspired Products

At Perimia, our name reflects our core mission and values. Derived from the combination of "peri," meaning "around" or "about," and "mia," signifying "my" or "belonging," Perimia represents our commitment to embracing and sharing African heritage with the world. Our name encapsulates our pride in African culture and our desire to connect artisans with global audiences.

We are more than just an e-commerce platform; it’s a vibrant community driven by a shared passion for empowering creators and fostering cultural connections.

Our team comprises individuals with diverse backgrounds and extensive experience in the fields of e-commerce, technology, marketing, and social impact. Together, we are united by a commitment to supporting vendors across Africa and the United States, providing them with the tools and resources they need to thrive in the global marketplace.
Our team brings a wealth of expertise to the table, having worked with various startups, established companies, and nonprofit organizations. This collective experience allows us to understand the unique challenges our vendors face and to offer tailored solutions that address their specific needs. We are dedicated to ensuring that every vendor we work with receives personalized support, whether it's through hands-on assistance in setting up their online stores, strategic guidance on market entry, or ongoing training to enhance their skills.

At Perimia, we believe in the power of community and collaboration. We are not just building a marketplace; we are building a network of creators, entrepreneurs, and innovators who are all working towards a common goal: to preserve and promote African culture while driving economic growth in their communities. Our team is here to support this mission every step of the way, combining our expertise with a deep commitment to social impact and sustainability.
