Get Involved in The Caravan: FOTR AFRICA’s Exclusive Membership

Join The Caravan: Sponsorship, Partnership, and Membership

Why 15? Our creative membership framework draws its inspiration from the stark reality that only 15% of Africa’s trade occurs within the continent. This isn't a point of pride—it’s a challenge and a call to action to reimagine intra-African trade.

At FOTR AFRICA, we see that 15% as a starting point—a spark for change. We are committed to transforming fragmented markets, overcoming colonial legacies, and unlocking the full creative potential of Africa.

Our Response: Through the 15 creative pathways of the FOTR AFRICA Caravan Guild, we ensure:
Access: Artisans, storytellers, youth, and women gain a central position in our fashion caravans, with shared platforms and fair value chains.
Equity: Fair labor, heritage protection, and circular wealth become the currency of our creative economies.
Society: We take fashion beyond the runway—into streets, markets, festivals, and communities, redefining beauty as a collective, inclusive force.

Instead of accepting the 15% limit, we are turning every stitch and story into a vehicle for transformation—redesigning markets and forging new connections across Africa.
