A recent survey by a national lending institution indicates that Tallahassee outshines the national benchmark for Black-owned enterprises, securing the 14th spot among major metropolitan areas. Although Black-owned businesses comprise 7% of the total, there lies a significant opportunity for growth, given that 32% of the local demographic identifies as Black. This discrepancy highlights a burgeoning potential within the community. Key local entities, such as the Small Business Development Center at FAMU, are dedicated to fostering this upward trend, offering valuable resources and support to aspiring entrepreneurs. Their efforts are pivotal in propelling economic empowerment and diversifying the business landscape in Tallahassee, cultivating an environment ripe for innovation and success.
