Free business listing for Kamukunji jua kali workshops, with orders on WhatsApp

Jua kali work is made to order, so the job begins with a description and almost always a picture. A jiko, a gate, a set of sufurias, a hinge that has to match the one that broke. That exchange belongs in a chat, and a listing is how somebody finds you to start it.

List your workshop for free

Free to list. No account, no card, and no commission on anything you sell.

A photograph explains the job faster than words

The customer sends what they want or what broke, you say whether you can make it and roughly what it involves, and both of you know where you stand before anybody travels. That is one message instead of a wasted trip across town.

  • A WhatsApp button that opens a chat with you
  • Photos of your goods, your shop or your work
  • Your own page with its own web address

Your previous work is the catalogue

Nothing sells made to order work like the last thing you made. Photographs sit on your listing where a customer can judge the standard before they message, which spares you the conversation with somebody who wanted something else entirely.

  • Photos of your goods, your shop or your work
  • Customers can leave a rating and a review
One tap from your listing opens a chat, on the WhatsApp you already use.

Two seasons land on jua kali at once

Before December, households prepare for relatives arriving and for the journey upcountry, which brings repairs, gates, jikos and anything metal that has been waiting all year. Straight after it comes the January school opening, and the boxes, beds and fittings that boarding students need are bought during the December peak rather than in January. Both of those decisions are made in the weeks before, by whoever could be found and asked.
