Target Takeoff - A Big Opportunity for Black Retail Brands
The ultimate goal for consumer product companies is to secure a spot on the shelf of a Big Box retailer. This creates more exposure and opportunities for growth. Target has invested in an accelerator that grooms small brands and prepares them to pitch their products to leadership. The name of the program is Target Take Off. This is an awesome opportunity for black owned brands.
Soul Food Market
We love supporting other organizations and want to pass along information for one we truly believe you should support. Soul Food Market gives you the opportunity to support a physical store for products mainly sourced from the African-American community.
