About Us

At Supernova Brands, we bring “out-of-this-world” products to Africa’s leading retailers and e-commerce platforms; from South Africa to Botswana, Zambia, Mauritius, and beyond.

We’re a fast-growing team of brand builders, dreamers, and doers who believe in creating excitement wherever our products go. Our brands are dynamic, design-forward, and full of personality; just like the people who bring them to life.

Our workplace is collaborative, energetic, and ever-evolving. We celebrate creativity, champion initiative, and believe that great ideas can come from anyone.

We work‑hard, but we play‑hard too. You can expect the occasional Nerf gun war or lunch time pop‑quiz challenge. You will likely learn to surf or SUP at our monthly team building events. It’s all just another day at the office.
