About Pekugara – Zimbabwe's Student Housing Platform
Finding student accommodation in Zimbabwe is hard. Listings are scattered across WhatsApp groups, Facebook pages, and word of mouth — making it stressful, slow, and often unsafe for students.
The name Pekugara means "a place to stay" in Shona. That's exactly what we're here to help every Zimbabwean student find.
Founded in 2025 in Harare, Zimbabwe, Pekugara launched on the iOS App Store in 2026 with over 500 listings across 10 cities and more than 2,000 students already finding housing through the platform.
Our Mission
Make student housing in Zimbabwe accessible, transparent, and safe. Every student deserves a secure, affordable place to stay near their university — without the stress of unverified landlords and scattered listings.
Our Vision
Become the leading student housing platform across Southern Africa, expanding from Zimbabwe into Zambia, Mozambique, and beyond.
