(01)About Maran

We are designers, printers and makers working under one roof in Kigali. That means the people who draw your logo can walk across the room and check it coming off the press.

Maran Design started with a simple idea: the best brand work happens when design and production talk to each other every day. Today we help ministries, banks, hotels, schools and start-ups look like themselves everywhere, from a business card to the side of a building.

(02)How we think

What you can expect from us.

  • 01

    One accountable team

    Strategy, design and production sit together, so nothing gets lost between suppliers.

  • 02

    A proof before every run

    You see and approve the work before we print, stitch or cut a single piece.

  • 03

    Made in Kigali

    Our own presses, embroidery and laser machines keep lead times short and quality in check.

  • 04

    Fifty pieces or fifty thousand

    From one box of business cards to branding a national campaign, the care is the same.
