Knock, knock. Black business just arrived at your doorstep, and it’s all thanks to UPS.

The small business landscape in the United States has changed significantly, especially over the last decade, as diverse communities and minorities have grown in both management and executive positions, as well as in the operation of small- and medium-sized businesses.

However, despite these projections, independent businesses led by minorities still face a series of obstacles, including structural, cultural and financial disadvantages, which make them more vulnerable to their competitors. An example of this occurred during January 2021, when small and medium-sized minority-owned and operated businesses were the first to receive government assistance, within the economic relief package that Congress approved at the end of 2020 to cope with the effects of COVID-19.
