THE BRAND

DESIGNED IN GENEVA. HANDCRAFTED IN LAGOS.

FOUNDED IN 2015, Kumesu is on a mission to revolutionize the luxury leather industry. Our aim is to place “made in Africa” as a new benchmark for luxury and hopefully inspire others to follow.

Kumesu was born from the vision of its founder, Betu Kumesu, who sought to create a luxury brand of handbags and accessories that pays tribute to the richness of African culture and craftsmanship.

Born in the Democratic Republic of Congo and having grown up in Switzerland, Betu Kumesu has always been drawn to the world of fashion and design. 

After several years at Deloitte in Geneva, she chose to pursue her deep aspiration by launching her own brand, where elegance, tradition, and exceptional craftsmanship converge to offer unique and timeless creations.
