How to Support Black-Owned Businesses

Written By Lindsay Gowan

How to support Black-owned businesses:


1. Seek out local Black-owned businesses, make a list. Use Google, Instagram hashtags, or these great resources to do your research:
✔️ @afrobizworld
✔️ @byblacks
✔️ @black_ownedcanada
✔️ @blackowned.to


2. Think of the businesses you frequent - is there a Black-owned business you can support instead?


3. Purchase from a Black-owned business, and please, don’t ask for a discount.


4. Tell your friends, all of them. Leave a review, post on social media.


5. Repeat. We challenge you to support Black-owned businesses not just today, or this week, but every damn day moving forward.
