Breaking Barriers in Operational Innovation: Worka Wins the Excellence in Business Operations Award

In Africa’s business landscape, sustainable growth has always been a test of discipline. Many organizations expand rapidly, only to find their systems buckling under the weight of scattered processes and inconsistent structures. But while others scramble to keep pace, Worka has positioned itself as a steady partner, one that brings order, precision, and maturity to the very heart of business operations.

That commitment has now been recognized with the Excellence in Business Operations Award, a distinction that highlights not fleeting disruption but the lasting systems that help businesses scale with confidence. Founded by Oluwaseyi Adeyeye, the company has consistently demonstrated the qualities of an established firm: foresight, robust frameworks, and a relentless focus on delivering clarity to businesses at critical points of growth.

Operating across procurement, operations, finance, and team planning, Worka’s solutions are not stopgaps or temporary patches. They are infrastructure, operational infrastructure that provides the same level of resilience and discipline that larger corporations rely on, adapted for African SMEs. Its footprint, from Lagos boardrooms to regional markets in Accra and Cotonou, underscores a model of growth that is measured, deliberate, and dependable.

“Growth without structure isn’t progress, it’s pressure,” said founder and CEO, Oluwaseyi Adeyeye, reflecting on the recognition. “Our mission is to give businesses back control, because clarity is the foundation of both efficiency and survival.”

For clients, the difference the company delivers often shows in the fundamentals: meetings that end with decisions, teams that collaborate seamlessly across departments, managers who focus on leadership rather than firefighting. It is here, in the consistency of everyday execution, that Worka’s maturity is most visible.

In an ecosystem where many startups rise and fall by the quarter, the company distinguishes itself as something more enduring a framework. Not just a company, but a safeguard against the fragility of ambition. The award underscores what African businesses are increasingly realizing: scaling isn’t about chasing momentum, it’s about building order.

For SMEs betting on growth, Worka is proving to be not just a partner in the moment, but a foundation for the long term.
