About Us
At Apẹrẹ, we believe that everyone deserves access to fresh quality foods at afforable prices
Our Story
At Apẹrẹ, we’re on a mission to make grocery shopping simple, affordable, and impactful. Growing up in Nigeria, we saw how challenging it was for families to access fresh, affordable groceries. Markets were stressful, prices unpredictable, and many couldn’t afford to buy in bulk to save costs. At the same time, farmers were losing produce to waste due to inefficient supply chains.
That’s why we created Apẹrẹ. Through social group buying, we help families and businesses pool their orders, unlock wholesale prices, and enjoy fresh, high-quality food sourced directly from farmers and trusted distributors.
But Apẹrẹ is more than just a grocery service—it’s a community. We’re passionate about reducing food waste, supporting local farmers, and making healthy food accessible to all. Together, we’re transforming the way Nigerians shop for food, one delivery at a time.
