Founded in 2018 by 23-year-old entrepreneur Iretidayo ‘Ireti’ Zaccheaus, STREET SOUK was born out of the lack of avenues to nurture and access the growing streetwear scene in Nigeria. Over the past five years Ireti has expertly curated a unique space for young Africans to express themselves freely, enhance their creativity, network and connect. STREET SOUK has grown from a humble 40-stall event with 1,500 in attendance to hosting over 115 stalls with an expected attendance of 5,000 this year. The success of her vision has been supported by a host of heavy weights across the fashion industry including the late Virgil Abloh who once described the event as a key part of Africa’s “youth-driven fashion renaissance”.
