Our Story
Founded in 2023, Campus Business Hub emerged from a simple observation: students have incredible business ideas, but lack the platform to turn them into reality.
We noticed that campus entrepreneurs faced numerous challenges - from limited market access to payment processing hurdles and lack of business visibility. Traditional e-commerce platforms weren't designed with student businesses in mind.
Our platform was built specifically for the campus environment, addressing unique challenges like semester cycles, student budgets, and campus-specific regulations.
Our Mission
To democratize entrepreneurship for students by providing accessible tools, resources, and a supportive community that transforms innovative ideas into successful campus businesses.
Our Vision
Creating a future where every student with a business idea has the platform and support to bring it to life, fostering economic growth and innovation within campus communities.
