Minority Biz, a business directory and consumer review publication that showcases black-owned businesses, has released a new mobile app. In celebration, the Company is offering all black-owned businesses a limited time free business listing subscription for up to ninety days.
"We are very excited to announce the release of our mobile app as a fully-integrated addition to our platform," says The Company's Founder and President, Lamont Barnes. "This addition not only accelerates our goal of connecting black-owned businesses with conscious consumers around the world, but also removes a barrier that has suppressed support of black businesses by automating the process for finding them."
The Minority Biz app is an interactive extension that allows users to find and review business listings, upload pictures and videos, join groups, view events, and network with fellow community members, on-the-go, from the palm of their hands.
The Company has a four point mission that aims to help: Black America spark economic empowerment, increase the life cycle of a dollar within the black community, improve the relationship between black-owned businesses and consumers, and help create additional businesses and jobs in underserved neighborhoods.
Minority Biz seeks to re-establish the successful economic strategy that the Black community implemented prior to desegregation, and has also been effectively executed in Jewish, Asian, Arab, and Latin communities for generations. Barnes notes, "They simply pooled their resources, financially supported their community businesses, and collectively developed vibrant communities."
Businesses interested in redeeming the free subscription must submit their listing at the Company's website, http://minority-biz.com.
The Minority Biz mobile app is available on both iTunes and Google Play.
Minority Biz is owned and operated by Urban Archives, LLC, an Atlanta-based company.
