In our county, we have Black History, too. According to a recent study, the Fairfax County Economic Development Authority notes that:
“[Fairfax County is home to 639 Black-owned employer firms — businesses with payrolls. That is the highest number of any locality in Virginia, according to the most recent Annual Business Survey published by the U.S. Census Bureau. These businesses generated $1.8 billion in annual revenue and employ more than 11,000 people, the Census Bureau reports.“ (source)Our Black-owned Business directory is made up of Black-owned businesses excited to work with our chapter.
