AFRO

VIPsocio, started by us and built by us for us. We believe the Afro communities of the world are the most vibrant, loving, active, diverse and entertaining places in the world and we are very proud to represent them well on VIPsocio, give our small businesses and entrepreneurs a voice and the exposure they need to thrive in the new millennium.”

Our Interactive features help people with mutual interest; fashion, music, art, choice of events and choice of nightlife entertainment to actually network or even socialize real-time on theVIPsocio App. Having common interests may bring us together, but actually interacting, transacting and chatting with each other is what will unite us.

Our integrated platform allows the community to not only find or create events that are relevant to their respective communities, but also use VIPsocio as a reliable source to find relevant community businesses in any city, locate and rate them and also shop though our reliable and secure marketplace.

The VIPsocio Mission

Our mission is to become the global centralized hub for events, venues and marketplaces within the afro communities irrespective of race, creed, gender, culture or religion. As members of the global afro communities ourselves, we believe we are ideally positioned and are very proud to help unite our diverse communities through common interests.
