NYUMBA MKONONI
Nyumba Mkononi, meaning 'a house in the palm of your hand,' is dedicated to making affordable housing accessible to all Kenyans, especially those in the mid and low-income earners category, helping them turn their dream of home ownership into reality.
Nyumba Mkononi leverages blockchain technology to connect prospective homeowners directly with local construction material manufacturers. From the initial planning stages to quantifying materials and making purchases, our platform streamlines the entire process, eliminating unnecessary intermediary hurdles and reducing costs.
Our innovative platform offers both incremental and instant material access through proximity technology, allowing users to access materials conveniently and efficiently. Through strategic partnerships with last-mile delivery players, including a network of hardware stores nationwide, prospective homeowners can order materials from their phones and collect them from the nearest hardware store.
In addition to addressing the challenges of affordable housing in Kenya, Nyumba Mkononi plays a vital role in advancing Sustainable Development Goal 11 by promoting sustainable cities and communities.
