Nexplumb is a pioneering company at the intersection of plumbing, technology, real estate, and commerce. It is a comprehensive platform. It is designed to solve some of the most pressing challenges in the plumbing industry.
The platform provides end-to-end services, resources, and systems. These serve homeowners, professional plumbers, vendors, producers, real estate developers, and commercial establishments. More entities are also served by this platform.
Nexplumb is not just a business. It is an evolving ecosystem. It reimagines how plumbing is delivered, managed, sourced, and maintained across Nigeria. Eventually, it will expand across Africa.
Industry Context and Market Gap
The plumbing industry, particularly in developing regions like Nigeria and Sub-Saharan Africa, suffers from a fragmented ecosystem with multiple problems:

Nexplumb was birthed as a response to these recurring problems. With the rapid urbanization in Africa, the demand for efficient plumbing solutions has outpaced the industry’s ability to evolve. Nexplumb steps in to fill this gap with structure, technology, and vision.
