Special Episode - Juneteenth is more than a celebration
Show Notes

QEPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode of Black Businesses Matter, I talk to not one, but two, amazing companies who both got their start on Juneteenth of 2021. The co-founders of Moor’s brewery, Jahmal Johnson, Anthony Bell  and Damon Patton share their journey to creating a national brand for black people by black people. Forged in the wake of a cultural shift, the three strived to reinvent themselves and redefine the craft beer industry.

 I also had the pleasure of  speaking with David Grant, who is the director of strategic partnerships for Disbelef , a tequila company that hit the scene in 2019 . The founders Ralf Golden and Toriano Banks leveraged their knowledge of the club scene to build a brand. A brand whose success allowed them to expand to a Midwest market that they launched alongside Moor’s Brewing on Juneteenth 2021.

This episode is worth the watch if you are a trailblazer in the making. An episode truly loaded with stories that exude black excellence.
