Skincare E-commerce Startup Uncover Raises $1.4 Million to Expand Into Ghana and Uganda
Uncover, a Kenyan marketplace for skin care products, has raised $1.4 million in seed funding to expand into the US, Ghana, and Uganda.
Launched in 2021 by Sneha Mehta and Jade Oyateru, Uncover uses data provided by users on its app–through quizzes, etc—to create personalized skin care products with labs in South Korea. The company distributes these skincare products through its e-commerce platform and retail partnerships with pharmaceutical chains like Goodlife and Medplus in Kenya and Nigeria.
