Since our online community launched in 2015, we have grown our community to over 20,000 consumer members who voluntarily log and track their transactions with Black Owned Business across the United States and Canada. We have circulated millions of dollars with thousands of Black-Owned Businesses helping to increase BOB Cash Flows, create and sustain jobs and position the Black Community to build wealth through group economics.
