I found this story quite interesting because the Black community spends predominately more than any other community yet, our businesses are still under financial strain because Black Businesses only get 2% of the Black consumer dollar. Black buying power is set to reach approximately $1.7 trillion dollars by the end of this year. Yet the black dollar only stays within our community for approximately 6 hours. How Sway??
I don’t even think we need to go over the how. Let’s be solution driven shall we? Let’s go “IN THE BLACK” for Black owned businesses. Here are my top 5 Black owned businesses to shop with this Friday.

Everyone wants their teeth to shine bright like a diamond. Activated Charcoal has been one of the newest (yet oldest) ways to achieve this.

It works great for people who drink coffee, tea, wine and eat berries (everyone). Holistic Solutions has an amazing price on their Activated Charcoal Toothpaste and they offer free shipping.
#3: The Vegan Soul Food Guide to the Galaxy

And, the growth that I have seen in the Black community from a Chef’s perspective is astounding, challenging and satisfying. The Vegan Soul Food Guide has shopping lists, easy to read recipes and nutritional facts to help you make your transition smooth and easy living better.

This will be the one year you won’t have to settle for socks, ties or breakfast in bed as your gift of choice this year.

Ladies, this is a gift for you and for him.
#1: LoveLustFood Vegan Salad Dressings
This Chef-created salad dressing line was built for the foodie in mind. With the current flow of health food trends, this company noticed that there were vegan dressings but no dressings that would catch the Black Culture. And also the salad dressings that were on the market contained tons of preservatives that still didn’t make them edible for vegan customers. With 4 flavors that have been chicken wing tested and vegan approved, I’m sure that you won’t be able to resist them.
