This year, 2024, has been a special one for Bellafricana. We launched the Bellafricana Global Membership to help African creatives showcase their businesses to the world, and we’re excited to celebrate an important milestone, first 20 global members in just two months!
The Start of Something Big: Bellafricana Global Membership
The Bellafricana Global Membership was created to give African creatives the support they need to grow their businesses globally. We know how challenging it can be to access international markets, and this membership is here to make that journey easier.
With this milestone, we’re reminded of why we started to build a supportive space where African entrepreneurs can connect with opportunities beyond borders and show the world the beauty of their craft.
Why This Global Membership Milestone Matters
Welcoming first 20 members so quickly is a big achievement for us! These members represent creatives from industries like fashion, crafts, skincare, and home decor. They’re passionate, hardworking, and ready to take their businesses to the global stage.
But this isn’t just about numbers. It’s about building a community where creatives can connect, grow, and succeed together.
