Vancouver-based Black Businesses
Listen, learn, take action, repeat. Educate yourself, your peers, your family. Thanks to Kula Kitchen, Yelp Vancouver, Vancouver Magazine, and others for sharing resources – we’ve combined them into this super list and hope to keep adding to this collection of Vancouver-based, Black-owned businesses to follow and support. When you’re done, keep doing the work. Whether you are able to financially support the cause or not, visit this Black Lives Matter page and Vancouver Mutual Aid for a list of actions and resources.
