A Decade of Impact, A Vision for the Future
Africawide's story is one of passion, innovation, and a deep commitment to making a positive impact on the African continent. It all began in 2008 with a vision: to provide client-centric solutions that create lasting change.
2008 - 2012
A Vision Realised: From Humble Beginnings to Trusted Partner
Driven by the vision of our founder, Africawide Consulting opened its doors in 2008. Our core mission was clear: to deliver exceptional service and solutions tailored to our clients' specific needs. The early years were marked by a spirit of tenacity and a dedication to exceeding expectations. By 2012, our hard work paid off. We landed significant contracts in the education and utilities sectors, establishing Africawide as a trusted partner and a game-changer in the consulting industry.
2012 - 2018
A Journey of Growth: Expanding Our Expertise
Recognizing the growing importance of technology in Africa's development, Africawide strategically expanded its core services in 2012. We established subsidiaries in Business Process Outsourcing (BPO), Technology, Engineering, Property, and Fintech. This diversification allowed us to offer a wider range of solutions and solidified our market presence. As we celebrated our 10-year anniversary in 2018, Africawide had grown into a well-respected firm with a reputation for excellence across five key divisions.

Guiding Principles & Philosophy
More Than Solutions - The Values that Drive Our Success.
Our success is built on a strong foundation of core values. These principles are more than just words on a page; they are the guiding compass that shapes our every decision and interaction, ensuring that every project we undertake is not just successful, but also meaningful.
Impact
We are driven by a deep desire to make a lasting difference on the continent. We measure our success not just by profits, but by the positive impact we create for individuals, communities, and the continent as a whole. We are committed to empowering our clients and partners to become agents of change within their communities, fostering a ripple effect of positive development.
Integrity
Trust is paramount.
We conduct ourselves with honesty and transparency in all our business dealings. This fosters strong relationships with our clients, partners, and communities, allowing us to build a foundation of trust that underpins all our work.
Client Focus
We go beyond simply meeting expectations. We take the time to understand our clients' unique needs, challenges, and aspirations. This allows us to develop solutions that not only address their specific requirements but also empower them to achieve their goals and make a positive impact within their communities.
Collaboration
We believe in the power of collective intelligence and diverse perspectives. We work closely with our clients, building strong partnerships that leverage local knowledge and expertise. This collaborative approach ensures our solutions are not only effective but also sustainable and tailored to the specific needs of clients.
Innovation
We don't just chase the latest trends; we embrace new technologies that have the potential to solve real problems and improve lives across Africa. Our focus is on developing innovative solutions that are not only
cutting-edge but also culturally relevant and accessible to African communities.
Shared Ownership
We believe in building a culture of shared ownership, both within Africawide and with the communities we serve. This means empowering our employees to take initiative, contribute their ideas, and feel a sense of responsibility for the success of our projects. It also means collaborating with local stakeholders and fostering a sense of ownership within the communities we work with. By fostering shared ownership, we ensure that our solutions are not only effective but also sustainable and have a lasting impact.
