We believe in providing high quality products to our customers

Our Story

Good for you, good for everyone

Unico is a student-led online marketplace where students design, manage, and sell their products. 

The platform is currently open for UKZN student consumers with the intention to expand and accommodate non-student consumers, providing access to a wide range of high-quality, affordable offerings. By connecting talented student entrepreneurs with the wider community, Unico not only empowers students to grow their businesses and gain real-world experience but also allows customers to discover unique, carefully crafted products while supporting the next generation of innovators.
