Owners Of Black Businesses Get Boost From the Prince’s Trust

A Prince’s Trust event which took place in Birmingham on Wednesday, October 12, celebrated black business owners. The event was made to mark Black Pound Day and saw small business owners flocking to the city to showcase their products.

Beauty products, naturally-produced foods, healthy drinks and greeting cards featuring a black Santa Claus were some of the products stocked on the different stalls at the charity’s center in Digbeth.

“They [the stallholders] bring unique aspects to their businesses from their culture, backgrounds, family histories and that’s something to be celebrated,” Prince’s Trust service delivery manager Leadh Woolley said.

The market was set up to promote small companies and to help highlight why it’s necessary to support small businesses owned by people from different backgrounds.

One of the entrepreneurs who took part in the program, Graphic designer Nyomi Smith, started her own stationary business with the help of the Prince’s Trust to increase representation in Christmas cards and wrappers.

“We don’t see a lot of black cards in the mainstream, my idea came from that, to see this as a normality and be able to buy something that you can connect with,” the Sanaa Gift Shop owner said.
