Afro Nova

Afro Nova is an Afro-European streetwear brand, based in Germany. The two of us, both of European and African descent, found our passion in expressing our love for the African culture through creative design. What started as self-made accessories for us and our friends, turned into a young and enthusiastic fashion brand. Since 2017 we can proudly call ourselves the faces of our brand Afro Nova. Our products are based on authentic Ghanaian and Cameroonian fabrics mixed with a tasteful and modern design. We believe that the variety of different cultures need to be preserved and appreciated. For us, globalization offers a chance to interact with and celebrate different cultures, rather than the attempt to erase our cultural differences. We understand the importance of equality on a global level and we know that difference and diversity are an enrichment to humanity as well as to individuals. Acknowledging, understanding and valuing different cultures is the foundation of being a global citizen and matters now more than ever. We aim to support and empower small business owners in different African countries by giving micro-loans to individuals who aspire to grow their businesses. This year we started cooperating with Kiva, an international non-profit organization that enables financially excluded people to build a secure existence through crowdfunding loans. In March 2021, we contributed to a loan for a young woman called Pascaline, a seamstress in Senegal who aims to expand her tailoring business.
