Join us on May 17th, 2025, at the SC State Fairgrounds from 10 am to 5 pm for the Columbia Black Expo.

Experience a day filled with enriching talks, cultural exhibitions, and a showcase of Black business excellence.

​The mission of the Black Expo is to promote economic development through increased exposure for minority-owned businesses. African-American owned businesses have the opportunity to showcase their products and services to the public and procurement officers from major corporations and government entities. It is also an opportunity for major corporations and government entities to develop viable working relationships with minority-owned businesses while marketing their products and services to a growing consumer market.

​The Expo is also a forum to educate, enlighten and inspire the entire community and the African-American community in particular. Aside from economic development, exposure to cultural resources is a part of the focus for this event.

 Come, be inspired, network, and shop with local vendors.
