Meet Shawnee Arrese
Shawnee Arrese, an American whose lifelong love for Africa has guided her path in ways she could have never imagined, discovered early on the beauty of African culture, traditions, and creativity. From childhood, Africa captured her heart, shaping the experiences and dreams that would define her life.
Fate took an extraordinary turn when her passion for Africa led her to meet her prince charming—a Ghanaian—and together, they built a life deeply connected to the continent she had always cherished. This union became the spark for AfriMart International, a brand born from love, culture, and purpose.
Through AfriMart International, Shawnee brings the world closer to Ghana. The brand empowers local artisans by promoting their handcrafted goods, supports sustainable tourism initiatives, and curates transformative travel experiences. From bustling markets and stunning waterfalls to cultural festivals and immersive tours, Afrimart International shares Ghana’s breathtaking landscapes, history, and traditions with travelers while uplifting local communities.
For Shawnee, Afrimart International has a mission to bridge cultures, celebrate creativity, and create meaningful connections between Africa and the world. Every handcrafted piece, cultural event, and curated tour reflects her commitment to authenticity, sustainability, and the vibrant spirit of Ghana.
