In Nigeria, parties and celebrations are a significant part of our culture. From weddings to naming ceremonies, housewarmings to birthdays, and every event in between, Nigerians love to celebrate. 

However, planning a party can be daunting, particularly for people with busy schedules or those needing the skills to handle event planning. Partycoo comes in.

Partycoo is a platform for all your event needs, particularly small and medium-scale events. Think of it as the Jumia for e-commerce and Uber for ride-hailing but for private party planning.

Every successful event is characterised by intensive planning, organising, pressure, and anxiety that come with so much planning and arrangement. Most of the time, the hosts are the ones who singlehandedly bear this onerous duty. 

However, only some are privileged to have people to assist them with the food, decorations, DJ, locations, and drinks, amongst other things every event planner thinks of.

The founder of Partycoo, Akintade Britto, experienced firsthand the difficulty of planning a party and saw the need for a platform to make party planning more accessible and less stressful. 

One major incident for Akintade, that birthed Partycoo was his birthday. In 2019, for weeks, he had envisaged a grandeur birthday party with his team at work. He had everything meticulously planned out, including the food and drinks.

 But on the day of the party, he was running behind schedule due to work commitments and couldn't execute his plan. His only option was to buy roadside cookies and chocolates on his way to work. 

The turnout for his party was a disaster, and he wondered if there was a better way to plan events for people with busy schedules. This was the thought Akintade had that first inspired the creation of the Partycoo platform.
