T'is the season to shop Black-owned, fa la la la la la la la la.

While we hope that you have been shopping Black-owned businesses all year round thanks to our guide on how to shop Black-owned businesses for everyday life and last year's gift guide, we know that the holidays are when we are all a little less frugal.

This year, we have added over 300 more businesses since last year's list and we have added more visuals to help you window shop before you make your purchase.



All of the businesses on this list are Black-owned businesses, most of which are also small businesses. Whether you are Black, White, Asian, Latinx, Native American or multiracial, you can support small business. Let's make a difference this holiday season!
