Qaba exists so Nigerians anywhere in the world can start, run and grow a business back home, without a flight, a favour or a fixer.
A cousin who can “sort it out for you.” A CAC letter that sat at an old address for three months. A bank asking for a utility bill from a house you left years ago. A WhatsApp thread with forty unread messages and still no answer.
Nigerians abroad send billions home every year, and some of the best ideas for Nigerian businesses are being sketched out in London, Houston, Toronto and Dubai. Too many of them stop at the first form that asks for a local address, or the first letter nobody back home can explain.
It isn’t a lack of ambition, money or know-how. It’s distance. Running a Nigerian business from abroad has always depended on goodwill: someone to collect your post, someone to stand in a queue, someone to tell you what a letter from FIRS actually means. Goodwill is generous. It just isn’t accountable.
So we’re building what we kept wishing existed: a real address in Nigeria, a team on the ground who answer to you, and one place where every letter, filing and decision is on record. Not a fixer. A base.
Make running a business in Nigeria from London, Houston or Toronto as straightforward as running it from Lagos.
We take on the parts that need someone physically there, the address, the post, the paperwork and the filings, and give you a clear view of all of it from wherever you are.
A future where your address abroad never decides whether you can build at home.
Nigerians abroad are already one of the country’s biggest sources of investment. We want them to be one of its biggest sources of companies too: owned from anywhere, run properly and built to last.
We’re new, so we can’t point to a long track record. Here is what we commit to instead, from day one.
A physical address with our own team on site. Not a PO box, not a relative’s house.
We tell you what a letter means and what happens next, without the legal jargon.
Plans billed in Naira, with every extra listed before you commit. No surprise invoices.
Every letter, filing and handover is logged in your workspace, so nothing lives only in someone’s phone.
Ask at midnight in Toronto. The answer is waiting when you wake up.
Your mail is opened and scanned only when you ask us to.
We’re starting small on purpose: one branch, a few services, done properly. We’ll grow to wherever our customers need us next.
Our first branch is open: business addresses, mail scanning and forwarding, and CAC registration.
Two more branches, so your business can sit closer to your clients.
Corporate services, trademarks, compliance tracking and support for expanding across Africa.
Tell us what you’re building. We’ll show you how Qaba fits around it.
