About Alabastar
Connecting You to Trusted Service Providers Across Nigeria
Welcome to Alabastar — Nigeria's trusted online platform designed to connect everyday people with verified service providers, skilled artisans, and reliable vendors, all in one place.
We understand how stressful it can be to find dependable professionals — whether you're looking for an electrician, a fashion designer, a makeup artist, a photographer, a painter, a home cleaner or dependable businesses be it medical, educational, hospitality, legal, retail et al. Alabastar bridges that gap by providing a safe, simple, and transparent marketplace where customers can discover and contact verified experts near them, while service providers get visibility, credibility, and steady leads through our platform.
Our Mission
To simplify connections between service providers and customers through a trusted, transparent, and accessible digital platform that promotes genuine human relationships, skill empowerment, and business growth across Nigeria.
Our Vision
To become Nigeria's leading network of verified service providers — where trust meets opportunity, and where every skilled professional, artisan, small business owner as well as medium and large scale establishments have equal visibility, regardless of their background or size.
What We Do
Alabastar serves as a digital bridge — a place where customers find help and providers find clients.
We List Verified Service Providers
Every provider on Alabastar is required to register and subscribe annually. This process allows us to verify their identity, business details, and service credibility before they go live on the platform.
We Connect Customers Directly to Experts
Customers can browse categories, view provider profiles, and contact them directly — all without paying any commission to Alabastar. Payments for services happen offline, directly between the provider and the client.
We Empower Local Businesses
Alabastar gives small business owners, freelancers, and artisans the online visibility they need to reach new clients, grow their brand, and build credibility in today's digital economy.

Our Story
Alabastar was born from a simple idea: to make finding trusted help easy in Nigeria.
Our founders noticed how many Nigerians relied on random referrals, WhatsApp groups, and word-of-mouth to hire service providers — a process often filled with risk, delays, and disappointment.
We built Alabastar to change that narrative.
Today, Alabastar stands as a digital home for skilled Nigerians, giving them a platform to showcase their talents and connect with clients confidently and safely.
