About Us
Built for Us, by Us — Empowering African Brands to Rise.
Business Description
Maali Media is a full-service marketing, advertising, and video production agency dedicated to helping African-owned businesses grow, scale, and compete on a global stage. Founded by a Black immigrant entrepreneur who personally experienced the challenges of building a business in Canada without a network or support, Maali Media exists to bridge the gap for African brands — both at home and in the diaspora.
We specialize in digital marketing, social media management, web design, influencer marketing, video content, and paid advertising — all crafted with cultural insight, strategic excellence, and results-driven execution. Our passion lies in supporting entrepreneurs who are often overlooked, giving them the tools, visibility, and voice they need to thrive locally and globally.
Our Mission
To lead the marketing and advertising industry for African-owned businesses in Canada and across the diaspora — and to build a strong footprint in Africa that helps local brands grow, compete, and scale globally.
Our Vision
To become the #1 creative growth partner for African-owned businesses worldwide — inspiring economic empowerment, global brand recognition, and a new era of African excellence in business.
Our Story
Maali Media was founded from lived experience — and a powerful desire to make a difference. As a Black immigrant launching a local home services business in Canada without prior business experience or a network, I faced the same challenges that many African entrepreneurs encounter: limited access, steep learning curves, and a lack of tailored support.
While my first venture found early success, the journey revealed a much deeper truth — that small businesses, especially those led by newcomers and African-owned brands, need more than ambition to thrive. They need guidance, tools, and a system that understands their unique path.
Determined to bridge that gap, I immersed myself in business education — attending countless workshops, mentorship sessions, and a government-sponsored entrepreneurship training program that opened my eyes to Canada’s broader business ecosystem.
That journey led to the birth of Maali Media — a full-service marketing, advertising, and video production agency created to empower African-owned businesses in Canada, across the diaspora, and throughout Africa. Our mission is clear: to help brands grow faster, tell their stories louder, and compete globally with confidence.
