Peleza Announces Strategic Decision to Continue as Independent Entity

Date: 22ND APRIL 2025

Peleza, a leading provider of identity verification and background check solutions in East Africa, announces the conclusion of its strategic collaboration with Prembly. In July 2024, both companies aligned operations under a joint organizational structure to fully evaluate potential synergies.

Following internal review, Peleza has made the strategic decision to continue operating independently. This decision reflects a mutual understanding of the best path forward for both Peleza and Prembly. By remaining independent, both organizations are better positioned to deliver greater value to their clients and stakeholders.

“As Peleza, we reaffirm our commitment to delivering trusted, efficient, and innovative background checks and identity verification solutions across Africa, ” said Marita Mutemi, CEO of Peleza. “Our leadership, team, and operations remain fully intact and dedicated to upholding the excellence that has made Peleza a trusted partner to hundreds of organizations across the continent.”

Moving forward, Peleza will:

• Advance its proprietary identity verification and background check platforms.
• Deepen partnerships with regulators, industry leaders, and like-minded businesses to shape the future of secure transactions.
• Expand its customer-centric solutions across key sectors.
