Why Support Black-Owned Businesses?
Spending at Black-owned businesses is one of the most direct ways to build generational wealth in the Black community:
- Every dollar spent at a Black-owned business recirculates in the community 5–6 times longer than at non-Black businesses
- Black businesses are 2x more likely to hire Black employees than comparable non-Black businesses
- Supporting Black-owned businesses directly counters the racial wealth gap driven by decades of economic exclusion
- Black entrepreneurs reinvest in their neighborhoods — funding schools, sponsoring events, hiring locally
