    A friend of mine brought this up. Saying she might get into the game cause she hasn't come across anyone doing a black owned business for house cleaning products. Does anyone know of any? I mean if there is a need for it, I am fully going to support her on this. A lot of cleaning products on the market are good for cleaning but ain't clean for us. The chemicals just ain't good. On top of that, when you buy them they support some white ran and owned super corp.

    True Laundry is an essential in the list, everybody needs laundry detergent ... another is Eco-friendly cleaning products #FREESHIPPING ...

    Also, Natural Beauty Products - Garner's Garden (from my neck of the woods) has an expansive lineup of cleaning as well as other products..

    It's not about how many companies, we can always use more .. there are ppl still ppl out here tripping on Tide, etc (nothing against those consumers of those products, even me, not enough outlets, so sometimes, it's more convenient) ....

    When we have a shortage, there sometimes is not a shortage with black owned products ...

    To me, the sticking point is how do we/you, as a business owner, make your products more accessible... can you sell in bulk? A subscription box? Same day delivery? How can you differentiate yourself?
    Ie to me, black businesses suffer from lack of advertising...

    The more black businesses, the better ✊🏿 ..

    Thanks for the info. Going to pass it on. It seems like the market can use more black run cleaning businesses though. And yeah, the advertising seems to be the only thing holding them back. She was saying she knows there was way more before but a lot of them just get bought out by bigger companies cause it is easy to take a huge chunk of money than to continue scaling a business.

    Some of the Black cleaning products I have seen use only clean ingredients.

    I love most of Garner Garden's products I have tried. I love how they took their time in creating quality products and didn't just throw together a bunch of ingredients.
