About

Our Story

We often talk about empowering local businesses, but we rarely build platforms that actually put them on the map.

2188 Connect is a proudly South African initiative that makes informal and small businesses discoverable, respected, and digitally visible. It’s simple, effective, and rooted in real communities.

​

We are a digital directory that maps and profiles small businesses in specific local areas. Designed to help township and neighborhood-based entrepreneurs gain free digital visibility.

 

Built by locals, for locals, with trust, storytelling, and simplicity at its core.
