4 Reasons Why You Should Support Black Owned Businesses

By Shanece Grant | October 26, 2022

Small businesses and entrepreneurs have been longtime wealth builders for generations. By supporting more Black-owned companies, you can help create more opportunities for meaningful savings, property ownership, credit building, and generational wealth for black communities. If we all do our part in supporting black businesses, then we’re helping with the progression of strengthening many black communities. Supporting black businesses shouldn’t be a trend; it should be a lifestyle. Here are four reasons why you should shop black.

1. Builds Up Communities

2. Creates Jobs and Opportunities

3. Closes the Racial Wealth Gap

4. Empower Local Communities

The Greater North Carolina Black Chamber of Commerce serves as an advocate for the creation, growth and general welfare of African American businesses in NC.
