Our Story

Connecting People to the Best of Ghana

Y3NKO was born from a simple idea: make it easy for Ghanaians planning a trip home to find and book the venues, stays, and restaurants that make a homecoming worth it.

Our Mission

Today, planning a trip home means piecing it together across Instagram DMs and WhatsApp — the rooftop for the party, the rooms for the family, the restaurant for the welcome-home dinner. There's no single place to book any of it.

Y3NKO brings event venues, stays, and restaurants together on one trip-planning surface — three co-equal offerings, built first for diaspora Ghanaians and the homecomings they're planning.

"Y3nko" means "Let's go" in Twi - and that's exactly what we want to inspire: the spirit of adventure and discovery.

Built by a Family

Y3nko is a family business — built by Ghanaian-American siblings who grew up between two homes

We know the trip home firsthand — the group chats, the planning, the scramble to find a venue or a table from thousands of miles away. Y3nko is the platform we wished existed every December. We're early, we're small, and we're building it carefully, one founding partner at a time.
