We are a wholly Black-owned LLC that was intrinsically grown from our lifelong, deep commitment to promoting the progress and success of all culturally and ethnically, Black-owned businesses.

In 2019, on a family trip we began discussing our inability to locate Black-owned businesses to fulfill our requests for desired goods and services.

This conversation led to inquiries about the existence of a present-day (e-version) guide to black businesses like the volume available back-in-the-day entitled “The Negro Motorist Green Book”, first published in 1936 by Victor H. Green.

We were surprised to discover the absence of any that were comprehensive in nature. This was our collective lightbulb moment leading to the conclusion that a mobile app should be developed “for us, by us” and PressBlk was born.

While the objective is not new or unique (i.e., Black Wallstreet) we profoundly believe in the unity, self-reliance, and uplift of the collective Black community…our community.

Therefore, we maintain that being part of a solution (there are many) to redirecting our aggregate purchasing towards building Black economic power is our responsibility.

Black business ownership, patronage, investment, and savings are critical to building the foundation for, and acquisition of, assets and ultimately generational wealth in our communities. Like so many other ethnic groups, we must intentionally convert our buying power into economic power.

Then, and only then, will we absolutely control our own destinies.

Come grow with us…It’s time to PressBlk!

Respectfully, The PressBlk Family.
