The Queer & Allied Chamber of Commerce Africa (QACC Africa) "was established to create an ecosystem that facilitates and promotes commercial relationships and widen supply-chains between queer owned and/or operated businesses, entrepreneurs and their allies, in nations throughout Africa. Although QACC Africa was formally registered in 2022, the underlying concept has been in existence since early 2021.
QACC Africa is the gateway for queer owned businesses and entrepreneurs throughout the continent to increase sales and strengthen business opportunities. Creating a strong network allows members to take their business further, finding opportunities with other queer entrepreneurs, businesses and potential investors.
QACC Africa’s approach is that “economic advocacy”, promoting economic inclusion, leading to economic development, will ultimately achieve economic justice and societal integration for the LGBTQIA+ community, and allow LGBTQIA+ people to sustain their own lives, health, security and education, without relying primarily on outside support, restoring a sense of human dignity."
