Where To Support Black-Owned Businesses In Cleveland

How you spend your money has a major impact on your local community. Use this directory to find more than 200 black-owned restaurants, shops and businesses to support.

by Cleveland Magazine Staff | Jun. 11, 2020 | 1:00 PM

One of the best ways to help support our city’s black community is by patronizing Northeast Ohio’s wide array of black-owned businesses. From lawn care to salon services, vegan bites to barbecue favorites, plus jewelry, original prints, clothing and more, let this list serve as a jumping-off point for your next purchase, and a vital way to support black entrepreneurs and community members in Cleveland now.

Editor's Note: This is a growing list. To submit a black-owned business for inclusion here, please reach out to Cleveland Magazine at capas@clevelandmagazine.com with the name and nature of the business, its location and website. Thanks to The Cleveland Bucket List and all the other organizations and individuals who helped us compile this list. For Black-owned businesses across Ohio, check out Destinee Stark's list.
