During Black History Month, we want to celebrate the accomplishments of Black ecommerce retailers, so we’ve pulled together a list of our favorites here.

You can honor Black History Month by making a donation to a charity that focuses on racial justice and equality. Conscious consumerism is another great way to give back—here’s a look at some of our favorite Black-owned Shopify businesses to support, today and every day.

Beautiful Curly Me

Young Black girls don’t often see themselves represented in the dolls that are available to them – and it can make them critical of their own appearances from an early age. Beautiful Curly Me was inspired by the experience that founder Evana Oli had with her daughter Zoe, who asked why even her dark-skinned doll had straight, smooth hair very different from her own natural curls.

Evana set out to create a line of curly-haired Black dolls, as well as doll clothing and accessories, that would help girls like her daughter feel good about themselves. And for every doll that is purchased, the brand donates a doll to an underprivileged child, helping to boost confidence and self-esteem in young girls across the country. Buy a doll (and give a doll).

BLK MKT Vintage

BLK MKT Vintage is a Brooklyn-based antique shop focused on collectibles and vintage products that reflect Black history. Products are available in their store in Bedford-Stuyvesant, as well as online.
