Kachifo's work is notable in postcolonial literature for helping lay "the foundations of a pan-African literary network" alongside Cassava Republic Press and Nairobi-based publishers Kwani Trust. Several Nigerian authors who have later achieved international success either worked at Kachifo or were first published by Kachifo, including Oyinkan Braithwaite, Petina Gappah, and Bisi Adjapon.
