Africa Imports

Africa Imports is one of the biggest names in the U.S. when it comes to Afrocentric wholesale. Officially based in South Hackensack, NJ, they’ve been around since the late ’90s and over the years they’ve built a reputation for supplying a massive range of African- and Afrocentric-inspired goods.

They carry everything — clothes and textiles (think dashikis, Ankara dresses, mud cloth, kente prints), haircare and skincare (raw shea butters, black soap, oils, natural soaps), wellness and herbal items (sea moss, turmeric, herbal remedies), jewelry, accessories, home decor, musical instruments — basically a full pipeline of culture, style, and care, all under one roof.

What They’re Doing for the Culture / Market
Africa Imports positions itself not just as a store, but as a platform for Black and global-African identity — they offer what many mainstream retailers don’t. For folks who want authentic hair- and skin-care geared toward Afro hair and melanin skin, or want fabrics and fashion that reflect our roots, this is exactly the kind of supply line that helps build business and community.

They also support entrepreneurs and small businesses. You can partner with them, stock up in bulk, resale, or even use their products to build out your own line — they’ve got “Business Startup Kits” and wholesale bundles built for that.

Strengths (Where They Hit Hard)

Business-friendly for Entrepreneurs — Their startup-kit and bulk options make it easier to turn this into revenue, not just consumption.

Variety & Reach — With thousands of products, Africa Imports gives access to goods many folks struggle to source consistently.

Wholesale + Retail Flexibility — Whether you’re a storefront, an online business, or someone building a personal-care brand, they offer wholesale and retail options.

Focus on Afro-centric/Cultural Products — They serve a niche that matters: Black beauty, Black hair, African heritage fabrics — stuff mainstream stores often miss.
