Black-Owned Business Expo – Celebrate, Shop & Connect on March 8th!

Celebrating Black Excellence: Black-Owned Business Expo at JCA This Saturday

This Saturday, March 9th, the Jamaican Canadian Association (JCA) at 995 Arrow Road, North York, will be buzzing with energy, ambition, and excellence as we come together for the Black-Owned Business Expo. This event is more than just a market—it's a celebration of Black entrepreneurship, resilience, and the power of community, happening on a day that holds special significance—International Women’s Day.

Honoring Black Women Entrepreneurs

As we recognize International Women’s Day, this event shines an extra light on the Black women entrepreneurs who continue to defy the odds, build thriving businesses, and uplift our communities. From innovative startups to well-established brands, these women are not just making moves—they’re setting the pace! They are leaders, creators, and visionaries, proving that Black women-owned businesses are a force to be reckoned with.

Breaking the Myth: We Do Support Each Other

Too often, we hear the narrative that Black people don’t support Black businesses—but events like this prove otherwise. Every vendor, customer, and supporter walking through the doors of the JCA this Saturday is an example of the strength in our community. We do support each other. We show up, we invest in our own, and we continue to build legacies. This is the energy we’re bringing.

Now More Than Ever: Buy Canadian, Buy Black

With the world changing rapidly, supporting local businesses has never been more important. When we choose to shop Black-owned and Canadian-made, we’re keeping money circulating within our own economy, strengthening our communities, and paving the way for future generations of entrepreneurs.

A Day of Networking, Fun & Shopping

Expect an incredible lineup of 30 vendors selling everything from fashion, beauty, and wellness products to delicious food, handmade crafts, and innovative services. This isn’t just shopping—it’s networking, inspiration, and community building. Whether you’re looking to buy, connect, or simply soak in the vibrant atmosphere, this is where you need to be this Saturday!
