Small-Town Roots, Big-Time Impact​

Local is Always Lekker. The story of Local is Lekker ZA. Local Is Lekker ZA began in the most humble of places, a garage. Founded by Charlene, Melanie, and Mandy, this small venture has blossomed into a vibrant business that amplifies the voices of artisans across South Africa. These three dynamic women combined their skills in art and business to create a platform that showcases African creativity for gifting

Hailing from the small town of Kwambonambi, Charlene, Melanie, and Mandy bring their small-town values to everything they do. Their passion for upskilling others and deep respect for Africa’s artistic heritage are the driving forces behind their business. 

Showcasing South Africa’s Creativity​

Local Is Lekker ZA operates out of the Prison Break Market, South Africa, a bustling hub where local creativity thrives. Here, they offer a curated selection of handmade goods, each piece telling a unique story of its creator. For those who can’t make it to the market, their online shop, localislekkerza.co.za, brings the magic of African craftsmanship to a global audience.

“Local Is Lekker ZA isn’t just a shop; it’s a movement dedicated to celebrating and supporting African artisans.”
