2020 gave plenty of reasons for people to start their own businesses. We began to see more and more Black entrepreneurs creating LLCs and social media business pages to promote the incredible products they are selling. From entertainers to stay at home moms, they all jumped on the bandwagon! Here are just some of the amazing Black businesses that I recommend you learn more about, become involved in and support!
#1 CANNABIS
Jay Z created a $10M fund to increase Black owned cannabis companies. Equity Ventures fund was formed in partnership and will provide up to $1 million for each cannabis startup it chooses to invest in. The fund will also be used to spearhead diversity initiatives for the cannabis industry, including providing job fairs and training workshops. Celebrity investors like Rihanna and Meek Mill have already hopped on this. Here are a few Black Owned Cannabis companies you might be interested in! Take a look! Farmacy Berkley
#2 PLANT BASED VEGAN SKIN CARE
Black skin is very different and we MUST know how to take care of it and realize what we are putting on our skin. Lots of people have decided to use more natural body products such as soaps, lotions, and bath and face products as well as makeup. Here is a list of some great Black Owned Vegan skin care companies!
