Nigeria's local business marketplace β built to connect verified businesses with real buyers, directly and simply.
Dehki was born out of a simple observation: Nigeria has thousands of quality local businesses β tilers, electronics dealers, furniture makers, bathroom fitters β but buyers struggle to find and contact them quickly.
Built by Uptawk, Dehki was created to solve that problem. The name Dehki reflects the idea of looking, discovering, and finding what you need close to home.
We started by onboarding verified businesses through the Uptawk platform and giving their products a dedicated marketplace where buyers across Nigeria and Africa can discover them, see their products, and connect directly via WhatsApp β no middlemen, no hidden fees, no complicated checkout flows.
Our Mission: To make it effortless for anyone in Nigeria and Africa to discover quality local products and connect directly with the businesses that sell them.
Our Vision: A thriving digital marketplace where every verified Nigerian business β no matter how small β has a professional online presence and a direct line to its customers.
Dehki makes buying and selling local as simple as three steps:
Search products or browse categories to find what you need from verified Nigerian businesses.
Enter your name, phone and email. We send a quick verification so the seller knows you're real.
Once verified, you're connected directly to the seller on WhatsApp to negotiate and close the deal.
Every seller on Dehki is verified through Uptawk. No anonymous listings.
Buyer contact details are shared only with the seller you choose to contact.
Built for Nigeria. We prioritise local businesses, local languages and local currency.
No checkout, no escrow, no complexity. Just a direct line between buyer and seller.
