Our Story

Every handmade piece begins as a union of heart and creativity.
But in today’s noisy world of social media and mass e-commerce, many creators struggle to be seen.
And buyers, overwhelmed by endless options, often can’t find something that truly speaks to them.

At KitaKreativ, we’re here to change that.
We offer creators a transparent, low-barrier, and flexible space to share and sell their work — a place where craft is seen, not lost in the scroll.

For buyers, KitaKreativ is more than just a marketplace. It is a thoughtful space for discovery, where every piece embodies the care of its maker and the essence of originality.

what does "KitaKreativ" mean?

Why the name KitaKreativ?

“Kita” means “we” in Malay, not just you or me, but us—a reflection of the spirit of walking together with every creator.

“Kreativ” is a playful twist on the Malay word for “creative”,
symbolizing freedom and limitless imagination.

Together, KitaKreativ represents a community built on local values, co-creation, and the beauty of everyday craftsmanship.

why we exist?

Many handmade creators encounter significant challenges, including high costs for platforms, scattered resources, limited visibility, and insufficient support. Starting out, building trust, or simply maintaining motivation is not easy.

However, buyers encounter challenges as well. It’s difficult to find thoughtful, handmade items without sifting through mass-produced goods. Many do not know where to look or whom to trust.

KitaKreativ was established to address this issue by connecting genuine creators with buyers who value their work.

We provide a fair and open platform where:

  • Makers can manage their stores on their terms.
  • Buyers can shop with confidence, knowing that what they purchase is authentic and carefully crafted.

We created KitaKreativ so creators can focus on their craft, while buyers can trust that what they support is honest, intentional, and made with care.

Valuable and authentic work deserves to be seen and appreciated. It should not fade into the noise of fleeting trends and mass production.

KitaKreativ is Malaysia’s first handmade platform that emphasizes collaboration. We believe that when people combine their talents, extraordinary creations are born. 

More than just an online marketplace, KitaKreativ is a space for connection, ensuring that every meaningful creation is appreciated by those who understand it.
