Brandy Attends H&M Buy From a Black Woman Holiday Market in Los Angeles


Since 2016, Buy From A Black Woman has empowered, educated, and inspired Black Women business owners and the people who support them

Published on December 23, 2022

This holiday season, H&M and Buy From a Black Woman traveled from coast to coast to present the second year of the “Buy From a Black Woman Holiday Market” with events in New York City, Los Angeles, Miami and Chicago. The market featured BFABW vendors from around the US. H&M’s partnership and support will further assist the nonprofit’s mission of empowering, educating, and inspiring Black Women and the people who support them.

Buy From a Black Woman is a non-profit organization founded in 2016 by Nikki Porcher that connects over 600 Black Women owned businesses across the United States and provides a community of support with the goal of helping them flourish.

Black Women have been leading the numbers when it comes to starting a business… but annual sales for Black Women Business Owners are five times smaller than all Women-owned businesses due to lack of support and awareness.

That’s where Buy from a Black Woman comes in.

Since 2016, Buy From A Black Woman has empowered, educated, and inspired Black Women business owners and the people who support them.

A registered tax-exempt nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization, Buy from a Black Woman ensures that Black Women have the tools and resources that will allow them to be successful. Through educational programs, an online directory, and funding, Buy from a Black Woman continues to grow as a trusted resource that helps Black Women in business.
