POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED
BLACQness Spotlight: Mark Agyakwa
Founder | Creative Director | Sports & Culture Entrepreneur

Mark Agyakwa is building at the intersection of sport, fitness, culture and business, driven by one belief: move with purpose.

He’s the founder of Y-Fit Wear, an activewear brand combining technical sportswear with athleisure, designed to remind people to remember their why and live intentionally through movement.

He’s also the founder of Fit For The Culture (FFTC), a global sport, fitness, health and wellness media platform celebrating Black athletes, fitness creators and everyday movers. Through content, events and community, FFTC tells the stories that sit between performance and identity, championing voices that deserve to be seen and heard.

Before entrepreneurship, Mark spent over 10 years in football, working as a scout, football analyst at Opta, and across commercial, brand partnerships and player recruitment at Roc Nation Sports.

Now he’s bringing that experience into building brands and platforms that challenge representation, celebrate culture and create opportunities for underrepresented voices.

Why He Matters

Mark knows sport is about more than performance. It’s about identity, belonging and the stories that shape culture.

Through Y-Fit Wear and Fit For The Culture, he’s creating spaces where Black talent and communities can see themselves reflected and celebrated.

For Mark, entrepreneurship isn’t just a job title. It’s a calling. It’s about creating your own path and moving with intention.

Remember your why. Own your journey. Move with purpose.

Some days, all you need is your gloves, your pads, and the decision to get stuck into the workout. No excuses. 🥊💪

Q1 - 2026: Clarity through the Chaos 🏁
When life gets tough, your lifestyle can become your place of solace.
I’m learning to lean into what I’ve built. The creative freedom, the discipline, the gym, the process, the knowledge and experience gained, the peace, it becomes more than work. It becomes a lifeline. It becomes your strength. 
This path of entrepreneurship, this life I chose is what makes me strong enough to deal with whatever life throws at me. 

I didn’t know how much I needed my business in these times. To uplift me during hard times.
It’s given me more than I ever expected. This path has blessed me with the right people. The ones who challenge you, believe in you, show up in ways you didn’t even know you needed. You can’t manufacture that, it finds you through the work and through the vision. God is the architect of it all. 

I’m grateful for my life. Grateful for the rooms I’m in. Grateful for the people who see something in me even when I’m still figuring it out. Grateful for my family and support system who believe in me and in the vision and love me through it all. 
And grateful for the reminders. When giving up is a serious consideration. We keep going not matter what. Look how far we have come. We started with nothing. We have an opportunity everyday to better ourselves and impact lives. Can’t take that for granted. 
Sometimes you need a reminder from Morpheus of your value and what we have to offer the world, shoutout to Uncle Laurence 🙏🏿🏁 #MoveWithPurpose taken in London, United Kingdom by @markagyakz

Exciting News!🎉🏁 

We’re thrilled to share that we’ve been selected to be part of the @pinterestuk Inclusion Fund! It’s a huge honour to be one of only six brands chosen for the 2025 cohort. We’re excited to learn, grow and collaborate alongside some amazing brands, all with the guidance of one of the best social media platforms in the world.

The Pinterest Inclusion Fund is an initiative created to support and uplift businesses from underrepresented and marginalized communities. This recognition means so much to us because we’ve always stood for the underrepresented and the underestimated. It’s who we are and what we represent.

It’s powerful when a global company like Pinterest not only sees you but champions your authenticity. There’s something deeply fulfilling about winning by staying true to your values, beliefs and not compromising them for success or mainstream appeal. 
We are Culture, we are the majority, we set the standard. We understand that regardless of the perceived level of success or notoriety. IYKYK. 

We don’t follow trends, we set them. We create our own path, we control our own narrative, we move purposefully.

Follow us on Pinterest @yfitwear as we continue to represent and inspire 🏁
