Blog Post - On visiting the North Dekalb Mall in Decatur, GA. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner of Keziah African Art & Design Gallery. The shop is located near the food court. It has an extensive selection of African art, clothing, and cultural merchandise. I was greeted as soon as I entered the store and I could tell that the staff was going to be attentive to my shopping needs. I was thoroughly impressed with the amount of merchandise available for purchase. Mercy and Samuel Mensah, the owners, were born and raised in Ghana and now live in the Decatur area. Mercy says that she has been in that location for approximately two years. I've included a few photos taken on that day so that you can see some of the variety of products that they offer. You can also learn more about them at http://www.keziahstyle.com Make sure you check them out and support the entrepreneurs in our community!

Blog Post - BlackBusinessList.Com recently visited the Chattanooga Market in Chattanooga, Tennessee and found several Black business vendors who had traveled from Atlanta, GA to vend their products. One of the vendors in particular caught our attention. The owner of Marsha! Marsha! Marsha! Handmade Jewelry was very engaging and pulled us in quickly with her charming personality. After conversing with her for a while, we learned that she frequents the Chattanooga Market because it represents a great opportunity for her to showcase her jewelry. We witnessed her make several sales while we were visiting her booth. We weren't surprised due to her warm presentation and great looking products. She told us that there were also other Black business owners who frequent the market and travel from Atlanta also. We really admire her tenacity and drive as a business owner. Being willing to travel and go where people are ready to do business is a great attribute for a business owner to have. We've included a few photos of her booth and a few other photos from the market. If you are ever able to visit the market, check her out, and tell her that we sent you! Learn more about Marsha!
