Welcome to Brown Bag Certified

The only place to get your exclusive Brown Bag merchandise, news, and updates! Your one stop shop for all things Black Owned! We at That Brown Bag realize we have a platform and we want to use it. Our company was founded on the basis of promoting and uplifting our community and the businesses within it. After much introspection, researching, and discussion we realize we can be a resource and a catalyst for change in our community.

A great way to support those in our community is to support their businesses, which is why we creatied That Brown Bag Minority Business directory, centered specifically around highlighting businesses owned by people of color. Restaurants, shops, and more....

This list is in no way complete. We request that you share your favorite black-owned businesses in every category with us so we can add them to this guide and continue to share with our audience.

Did we miss one? Did one of these places close? Send us a note!
