Black owned businesses were some of the hardest hit by the pandemic and buying from them is the best way you can give your support on Black Friday.
It’s good to start looking early. With Black Friday becoming an extended event, you can find deals as early as October and as late as January. On top of that, shipping delays and supply chain issues can cause shortage in products on the lead up to the holidays.
Therefore, you should not wait until 26 November to start looking for your Black Friday bargains.
Here is our selection of the best Black owned Black Friday deals so you can start looking straight away:
