Handmade in Uganda.
Delivered by Ugandans.
We connect makers with the people who love their work, and we create jobs for young people along the way.
About us
Lesuka Technologies is a Ugandan technology company. We started Lesuka, an online marketplace where artisans sell handmade gifts, crafts and everyday products to customers across the country.
Many talented makers sell only to the people around them. We give them a shop that is open all day, a way to be paid safely, and a delivery service that gets their work to the buyer.
What we do
Delivery network
Our own riders collect from the maker and bring the order to the buyer. A 4-digit delivery code makes sure it reaches the right person. Outside Kampala and Wakiso, orders go by courier or bus.
Support for makers
We help sellers list their products, take good photos and understand their sales, so a craft can grow into a steady income.
Our people
Lesuka is built by young Ugandans and for them. We have created work for university students, part-time workers, craftspeople and boda boda riders, women and men, in delivery, craftsmanship and marketing.
We believe that a fair, steady job in your own community changes more than one life.
- Riders who earn for every delivery they complete
- Makers who keep the value of their work
- Students and part-timers who build experience
- Customers who get something made with care
