VERTIK Africa – Building the Future of African Cities, One Vertical Community at a Time

VERTIK Africa is a systems-level response to Africa’s urban crisis. With over 950 million new city residents expected by 2050, VERTIK builds upward—not outward—using modular, mid-to-high-rise vertical communities. Its approach blends climate resilience, housing equity, prefabrication, and data-driven planning to shape dignified, inclusive cities.

Our Sub-Brands

VERTIK AFRICA operates through a suite of specialised sub-brands that work together to deliver affordable, resilient, and vertically integrated housing ecosystems. Each unit focuses on a critical layer of city transformation—from planning and land alignment, to design, research, finance, innovation, and governance. Together, these sub-brands form a coordinated platform that turns policy into projects, projects into communities, and communities into sustainable city futures.
