It’s National Black Business Month! A time to acknowledge the achievements of Black-owned businesses contributing to our nation's economic and cultural well-being. That’s why we’re especially excited to share this customer story from Karene, owner of Caribbean Taste Budz, an authentic Jamaican restaurant in Queens, NY. She took over the business in 2021, honoring her friend’s legacy and growing it with passion and dedication. After working with Forward, Karene was able to fund the expansion of her kitchen and now dreams of launching a food truck. 🚚🍴We’re so grateful to be part of her journey to success.
