Black Shop Friday is dedicated to raise awareness of local black-owned businesses by calling on people to commit to visit and purchase from at least one black-owned business – brick-and-mortar or online, product or service – as part of their regular routine on the busiest shopping day of the year.
Earlier this year, Black Shop Friday collaborated with Target to establish a majority-Black board of directors. This important partnership helps diversify perspectives, expand campaign reach, and extend retail training for our participating businesses. Target supports Black-owned businesses in every stage of development, and we encourage participants to apply for Target Accelerator Programs: Target Takeoff & Forward Founders. Both programs are designed to help entrepreneurs increase their potential for long-term success in retail.
