Many American minority businesses either did not qualify for or receive government loans designed to keep small businesses afloat, so something had to be done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSo many black-owned businesses closed this year because of the pandemic,\u201d says Danielle Rosser, the event organizer. The Atlanta-based publicist\u2019s brand, UltimateCreativ, is hosting the event. \u201cWe wanted to specifically give female owners in that demographic an opportunity to close the year out strong. Many times, these women are starting businesses to create financial freedom for their families, so this is a big deal.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This online expo offers a one-of-a-kind chance for the black community and others to show up and support the business owners who need them most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cRight now, a lot of people are looking for black brands to spend their money with. This is one event where they can find multiple small businesses in one place,\u201d Rosser says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mahogany expo is open to anyone with an Internet connection. Attendees will be entertained by musicians and comedians in a talent showcase, and inspired by interviews with event sponsors. Tickets are now available for $5 on Eventbrite.com. Interested vendors may contact UltimateCreativ at drwordconsult@gmail.com to sign up before November 7.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ATLANTA, GA -The community is invited to enjoy an afternoon of shopping, fun, enlightenment in support of America\u2019s black woman-owned businesses on Saturday, November&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1526,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_is_hidden":false,"apple_news_is_paid":false,"apple_news_is_preview":false,"apple_news_is_sponsored":false,"apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":"\"\"","apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[38,280,15,469],"class_list":["post-1525","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","tag-black-owned-business","tag-black-woman","tag-business","tag-minority-business"],"aioseo_notices":[],"apple_news_notices":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
