LOUISVILLE, Ky. An initiative to support Black-owned businesses in Louisville is expanding its platform, with help from Louisville Metro Government, to help connect Black-owned contractors with companies and organizations.
The Black Contractors Network is an expansion of Buy Black Lou, an initiative that is focused on advertising and connecting Black-Owned businesses through a Facebook page and an app. The initiative was launched in 2019 by Tanika Bryant, the executive director of the nonprofit Black Business Association in Louisville.
Louisville Forward, the city s economic development arm, has provided a $50,000 grant and technical assistance for the new addition to the initiative. Through the network, Black-owned contractors can create profiles making themselves available for companies, and companies looking for contractors can create a profile to list jobs and projects for bid.
