Who We Are

Asterique is a Perth based Australian company with subsidiaries in Zimbabwe and South Africa. In order to bridge the digital divide depriving many people in developing countries of access to information, education and commerce, we have strategically partnered with like-minded businesses in Australia to make technology affordable to all. We bring unprecedented access to high quality enterprise grade IT equipment to the general consumer at wholesale prices. Through strategic partnerships and sustainable re-use, we make technology affordable to all. 

​

Asterique Australia is the brainchild of Alladean Chidukwani and Arnold Tatenda Nyamhamba, Australian-Zimbabweans with a passion for technology, inclusion, equal access and opportunity.  

​

UN SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS

In line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, Asterique is committed to: 

1. Support the marginalized and disadvantaged by allowing equitable access to
   technology which has almost become a basic need in today's technology age.
   UN Goal 10: Reduce Inequalities

2. Help educate the children in underprivileged communities by giving them
   free or affordable access to technology. UN Goal 4: Quality Education

3. Empower women and girls by giving them equal access to technology. UN Goal 5: Gender Equality 

4. Bring clean renewable electricity to communities detached from the electricity grids through sustainable re-use of solar technology from developed countries like Australia. UN Goal 7: Affordable and Clean Energy
