<span data-metadata=""><span data-buffer="">Our story
<span data-metadata=""><span data-buffer="">This is how Stermart was born
<span data-buffer="">The story of STERMART is one that began with the desire to propel African-owned products to the forefront of households in the U.S. As a result of the difficulty to access cultural products when abroad, STERMART was founded to both grant consumers easy acquisition of valuable, unique products and to mitigate vendors’ hassle when selling. With STERMART, vendors can focus solely on their products, leaving the rest—such as brand elevation, marketing, and selling—to us!
Today, as the leading marketplace for SMEs, we are proud to support a wide variety of vendors from the African diaspora and beyond. With a deep passion to satisfy both consumers and sellers, we’ve been able to make our dream a tangible reality.

Meet our founder
Esther Abieyuwa
Abieyuma resides in California with her children and husband. She’s an analyst, who has always been deeply passionate about helping small and medium businesses grow within the digital space.
Stermart came to life after a long time as she has always had a dream and desire to bring Lagos’ Balogun Market to online where people from across the world can access those valuable goods. Being aware that a lot of sellers travel from
different parts of Nigeria to Lagos to buy products to sell, and conscious of the stress of this process, Abieyuwa believed that there could be a way for business owners to easily purchase their products
After relocating to the US, she realized that there are lots of sellers in the States that are registered business owners, yet do not have the resources to sell online. Other online retailers are too large and saturated, making it difficult for sellers to break even in the market with such tough competition. Therefore, Stermart was Esther’s solution to this problem
Originally, Stermart was created in the hopes of selling only food products in the United States, but due to requests, other products have been added to the catalog, expanding Stermart to include a variety of other goods
Abieyuwa aims to create brand recognition for small and medium-sized business owners, increase sales while limiting the hassle of sellers, and ultimately satisfy customers with the amazing and unique products found at Stermart.
