Black-Owned Businesses To Check Out On Black Friday And Cyber Monday

As the holiday shopping season officially kicks off, Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday are the most popular days in the states for online sales. Every year during this weekend, retailers generate billions of dollars in revenue from anxious customers looking for the best deals.

According to the Pew Research Center, nearly 6 in 10 Black adults consider supporting Black businesses. However, despite the growth of Black-owned businesses in recent years, they still represent a small portion of the country’s overall number of firms and revenue.

In honor of the season of giving, here are a few black-owned businesses to check out as you start your holiday shopping.
