  3. Featured on @CLTBlackOwned - Week of July 26 Recap

Each week the creative team at @CLTBlackOwned — Maddy, Jeff, Ashley and Jeremy — highlights a different Black-owned business in Charlotte and the surrounding area Monday through Saturday. On Sundays, they ask you for business suggestions or highlight multiple businesses in a particular field.

The group shares Charlotte’s wide community of Black-owned retailers, restauranteurs, service-providers, creatives, consultants and innovators with their over 22,000 Instagram followers.

To help them advance their mission and spread the word, we’ll recap their selections regularly in The Biscuit. Read the list below of business highlighted during the Week of July 26 and then help them spread the word, too. Support these businesses, share them with your friends and family, hire them, eat their food, buy their products. These businesses deserve to be known by everyone in Charlotte.

You can also suggest any Black-owned businesses that @CLTBlackOwned should know about. And give the group a follow on Instagram while you’re at it!
