Our business is helping Black businesses grow and thrive. Established in 1989, the Los Angeles Black Business Expo is a premier resource event.
FACTS:
According to “The Nielsen Company Research Group,” Black consumers are speaking directly to brands in unprecedented ways and achieving headline-making results. Through social media, Black consumers have brokered a seat at the table and are demanding that brands and marketers speak to them in ways that resonate culturally and experimentally, that is if these brands want their business. And, with African Americans spending $1.2 trillion annually, brands have a lot to lose. Census survey estimates drawn from the University of California in Santa Cruz, reflected that by mid-April, 2020, 440,000 black business owners closed their doors for good (a 41% plunge by comparison). In June of 2020, CBS news revealed that according to research from the University of California in Santa Cruz, 17% of white-owned businesses closed during the same time period.
The Los Angeles Black Business Expo is here to help Black businesses grow and thrive.
