Who We Are

KIASUP is a digital artisan marketplace born in Lagos, Nigeria, with a bold vision to transform the way skilled professionals in the informal sector connect with the clients who need them most.

We are a platform built on belief. The belief that a tailor in Surulere deserves the same visibility as a boutique on Victoria Island. That a plumber in Mushin should be as easy to find as a contractor in Lekki. That every artisan, tradesperson, and service provider regardless of their background deserves a fair shot at building a thriving business.

KIASUP bridges that gap.

What We Do

We provide a structured, trusted digital marketplace where clients can discover, book, and pay for skilled service providers across a wide range of categories from construction and domestic services to IT, corporate support, event services, hospitality, and transport.

Our platform is designed with both sides of the equation in mind. For clients, we eliminate the frustration of finding reliable professionals by offering verified profiles, transparent reviews, and a secure payment system. For artisans and service providers, we offer a stage a professional digital identity where their skills can be discovered by thousands of potential clients across Lagos and beyond.

Every booking on KIASUP is backed by our secure escrow payment system, which ensures that clients only pay in full once work is completed to satisfaction, while artisans are guaranteed fair and timely compensation. This is trust, by design.

Why We Exist

Nigeria's informal economy is one of the largest and most vibrant in the world. Tens of millions of skilled workers power this economy daily yet many remain invisible, underserved, and without the tools to grow sustainably.

KIASUP exists to change that.

We are deeply committed to formalizing the artisan economy and creating pathways to decent, dignified work not just for today, but as part of Nigeria's long-term development goals. We align with the vision of a more inclusive economy where no skill goes to waste and no worker is left behind.

We are not just a marketplace. We are infrastructure for opportunity.

Our Story

KIASUP was founded with a simple but powerful question: why is it still so hard to find a reliable artisan in Lagos?

The answer was not a shortage of skill. Nigeria has an extraordinary wealth of talent. The problem was visibility, trust, and structure. KIASUP was built to solve exactly that. We set out to create a platform that would give informal workers a professional identity, give clients peace of mind, and give the Nigerian economy a more organized, accessible layer of skilled services.

Today, KIASUP operates across multiple service categories in the Lagos metropolitan area, serving a growing community of artisans and clients through web and mobile applications — and we are just getting started.
