In House Photographer - UJUU

Founded in 2020, UJUU is an eCommerce platform and brand development studio. We endeavor to connect a global audience of underserved and underrepresented consumers to a diverse community and collection of carefully curated and vetted emerging designers and brands. We achieve this by offering elegant brand development services and eCommerce solutions across our family of brands.

Our vision is to create a best-in-class and forward-thinking shopping experience for our global community of black and brown across the African diaspora. We're just getting started, but we're already off to a promising start with the launch of our three initial brands: souk + SEPIA, simisienna and Mango Maison. With each subsequent brand offering we strive to better serve and meet the unfulfilled needs of our expansive audience.
