About LocateMe

Building Africa's most trusted digital infrastructure for skilled services, construction ecosystems, and workforce empowerment.

Our Mission

LocateMe is transforming how technical services, construction, and skilled labor operate across Kenya and the African continent.

We address critical market failures — trust deficits, fragmented markets, and lack of digital infrastructure — that cost billions annually in the informal and technical services economy.

Our platform connects verified service providers with clients through GPS-powered discovery, secure escrow payments, and a comprehensive trust verification system.
