Our Story
The curtain never truly fell.
We simply raised it again.
VIVA is Zambia's home for curated, high-end experiences — and the next-generation marketplace carrying the torch of a deal culture that never lost its audience.
Years ago, a global leader in daily experiences closed its doors on our market. The decision was made in boardrooms far away — yet its echo was felt on every high street, in every salon, restaurant and tour desk that had come to depend on it.
But the need never left. Diners still sought new tables, travellers still chased unfamiliar horizons, and the finest providers still hungered for a stage worthy of their craft. What disappeared was not demand — it was the platform that had served it.
Where others saw an ending, we saw an invitation.
Founder & CEO
Our Founder
When the last of the global deal platforms withdrew from the region, our founder made a decision: the void they left behind would not go unfilled. With deep roots in Zambian commerce and an instinct for what a rising Zambian middle class truly values, they founded VIVA — not as a copy of what departed, but as the dignified, modern successor the moment demanded.
Their conviction is simple: the finest experiences should be within reach of those who appreciate them. Under their leadership, VIVA set out to rebuild a market — and make it the definitive home for curated experiences in Zambia.
“The appetite for life's finer moments never left Zambia. It was simply waiting for a home that understood it.”
