Thankfully, we support our own and as businesses rise, many of us reach back. That is the case for Julian Addo, the mastermind behind the natural hair and scalp care brand Adwoa Beauty. She has just announced the launch of a business fair supporting Black woman entrepreneurs.
The beauty boss announced on Instagram Tuesday that is she is opening her Dallas-based showroom to help give a dozen businesses an opportunity to showcase their goods or services.
Her Black Woman Owned Business Fair will take place the last three Saturdays in February (February 15, 22 and 29). Each week, four different vendors will be handpicked and given an opportunity for the greater community to experience their brands.
Best of all, there will be no showcase fee. Julian is also looking for a food vendor/truck and a musical act. Businesses do not have be Dallas based. We expect this to fill up rather quickly, so act fast!
***UPDATE***
Due to overwhelming response, Julian has closed submissions! She shared on Instagram that she is working on creating additional opportunities to support Black women-owned businesses (in all industries). Stay tuned for more information on the fair and upcoming events.
