Our Story

We Got Tired of Fakes.So We Built This.

Re-Luxe | KE is Kenya's first luxury marketplace where every single item gets physically checked before it goes live. No AI guessing. No "looks legit to me." Just real humans doing real authentication on real luxury goods.

The Origin Story

Why We Started This

Picture this: You're scrolling through a marketplace, you see the perfect designer bag, the price is almost too good to be true. You buy it. It arrives. And... it's fake. The stitching is off. The logo is wonky. You've been played.

This happened to too many people we know. Friends, family, even us. The Kenyan luxury market was a mess of counterfeits, scammers, and broken promises. Sure, there were legit sellers out there, but how do you find them? How do you know for sure?

So we decided: If nobody else is going to verify luxury items properly in Kenya, we will.

We built Re-Luxe | KE as the marketplace we wished existed. Every bag, every watch, every piece of clothing gets physically checked by our authentication team. We look at stitching, hardware, serial numbers, materials - the whole nine yards. If it doesn't pass, it doesn't go live. Period.

And because we know trust goes both ways, we added escrow protection. Your money doesn't go to the seller until you confirm you got what you ordered. Sellers get paid fairly and on time. Buyers shop without fear. Everyone wins.

How We Verify Every Item

Transparency is key. Here's exactly what happens when a seller lists an item.

1

Seller Ships to Us

The seller sends the item to our authentication hub in Nairobi. We provide prepaid shipping labels, so it's easy.

2

Physical Inspection

Our authentication team examines stitching, materials, hardware, logos, serial numbers - everything. We compare against brand specifications and our database of verified authentic items.

3

Pass or Reject

If it passes: We issue a certificate, list it on the site, and it goes live. If it doesn't: We send it back to the seller with a detailed explanation. No hard feelings, just facts.

4

You Buy with Confidence

When you purchase, we ship the already-verified item directly to you. Your payment sits in escrow until you confirm you received it in perfect condition.
