Ten of Toledo’s Best Black-Owned Businesses
For the third year, The
Truth has absorbed information from our readers and our own
files over the years and selected a number of black-owned
businesses – 10 this year – worth mentioning.
And what a varied list we
have – consulting, construction, medical, fashion, jewelry,
IT, PT – it’s quite a tribute to the entrepreneurial spirit
here in Toledo.
As Jay Black, former
president of the Toledo African American Chamber of Commerce
and current director of the Minority Business Assistance
Center, has written in the past – an article we have
re-printed in these pages – the importance of supporting
local, black-owned businesses cannot be over estimated. The
practice of reaching out to our neighbors for services, of
going the extra mile to patronize community businesses, is a
matter of survival for that community.
Black-owned businesses
employ our neighbors and relatives, keep dollars circulating
in the community and enable our youth to gain knowledge and
experience in the most fundamental aspects of how a
community exists and thrives.
Please feel free to inform
us of businesses in our community that need a light shined
upon them.
