We believe every local business deserves the tools to thrive in a digital world — without the complexity, cost, or technical barriers.
Sokoleho was born out of a simple observation: local businesses across Africa are deeply connected to their communities through WhatsApp — but most lacked the tools to turn those conversations into reliable, scalable orders.
Restaurant owners were managing orders via chat messages, manually tracking deliveries, and losing sales to missed messages. Clothing stores had no way to share a catalog. Service providers had no system for managing customer requests.
We built Sokoleho to change that — starting with WhatsApp, the platform local businesses and their customers already use every day.
