Founded in Malmö by Arinze Prosper Emegoakor in 2019, Akụkọ kickstarted its journey with a successful crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter the same year.
The brand started its journey with colourful, boldly patterned socks and later its product range to an underwear collection for all genders. All products are sustainably made from the finest bamboo fabrics.

LUYANA SKIN CARE
African plant-based skin care that promotes skin health without compromising on ingredient quality or safety.
The birth of Luyana Natural Skin Care was inspired during a routine medical checkup in Copenhagen when the founder received a shock, the discovery of multiple benign tumors. This health scare ignited a profound reevaluation of the toxins they had unknowingly exposed themselves to.
Determined to protect not only themselves but also their young children, the urgency to find truly safe products intensified. They wanted full understanding and control of exactly what went into the products they used. The solution: Luyana Natural Skincare.
