Panap: Bridging African Culture Globally

Panap is the first global Pan-African app designed to celebrate and promote African culture, businesses, and communities worldwide. Rooted in the spirit of Pan-Africanism, the app connects users with authentic African experiences and services, no matter where they are. Whether you're from Cameroon visiting Dubai and looking for a Cameroonian hair salon or a Senegalese restaurant, Panap helps you find businesses owned by African nationals nearby. It provides a directory of African businesses, cultural events, and initiatives to enrich and promote the African community globally.

Our Mission

  1. Business Listings: Users can explore businesses such as restaurants, salons, embassies, and startups owned by African nationals in their local area.
  2. Add Your Business: African entrepreneurs can add their businesses, gain visibility, and grow their customer base.
  3. Cultural Integration: Discover African cultural events, activities for children, and success stories of African individuals across various fields.
  4. Charitable Initiatives: Support or participate in verified charitable campaigns through our "Break the Chain" feature.
  5. Global Connectivity: While the app initially focuses on the UAE, Panap is built to scale globally, connecting African communities in cities like Paris, Washington, and beyond.


Panap is not just an APP, it's a movement to highlight and promote African heritage, empowering individuals and businesses while enabling other nationalities to explore the richness of African culture.

Our Vision

Panap aspires to be the go-to platform for anyone seeking to engage with or contribute to the African community, promoting growth, unity, and shared cultural pride.
