Kasuwar Arewa — Northern Nigeria General Merchandise

Merchandise trading, carried forward from a market five centuries old.

Maisugar Ltd trades in what the Hausa north has moved for generations: grain, livestock, airtime and the everyday goods a household runs on — from Bakin Kura Street.

General Merchandise · Northern Nigeria

Trade here doesn't start with us — it started in the Sahel's oldest markets.

Kano's Kurmi Market has run without pause since 1463, when it was founded to hold the region's grain, textiles and cattle trade. Maisugar Ltd works in that same tradition of general merchandising — grain by the sack, livestock by the head, and now, airtime by the tap.

Our blue is not decoration. It's the indigo of Kano's Kofar Mata dye pits, dug in 1498 and still worked today — the same colour that once marked traders across the Sahel as far as the Tuareg caravans.

1463

Kano's Kurmi Market opens under Sarki Muhammadu Rumfa — still trading, over 550 years on.

1498

The Kofar Mata dye pits are dug — the indigo blue that still runs through Hausa trade.
