BROKA was founded by Xavier and Arnold Ochieng — two founders who observed the friction and opacity in informal commerce first-hand and believed that intelligent technology could fundamentally change how buyers and sellers interact.
Our long-term vision is to make intelligent commerce accessible to everyone — regardless of language, location or technical background. Starting in Kenya, we want to build commerce infrastructure that serves the way real people in Africa buy, sell and negotiate. From there, the ambition is global.
