As we reach the end of Black History month, we want to take a moment to recognize and celebrate all of the brave men and women who have started, persevered, and grown black-owned businesses that bless the economy, their communities, and employees.

Did you know that 28% of businesses in the US are black-owned? And this number continues to grow.

Since the pandemic minority-owned businesses are growing faster than ever before and they are experiencing both geographic and business sector shifts.

One example of a thriving Black-owned business is Bridgewater Interiors. Bridgewater is on the top 10 list of black-owned businesses and currently has annual revenue of $2 Billion and employs 2,400 people. In addition to their work in the automotive industry, their success serves as an economic driver for their employees and their communities on a daily basis.
