In the New York City/New Jersey area, more than 100 African American, African, and Caribbean-owned restaurants have already signed up and are ready to take part in this period of recognition.
“COVID-19 changed the landscape since 2020,” said Warren Luckett, who created Black Restaurant Week in Houston, Texas, with his friends Falayn Ferrell and Derek Robinson in 2016. The initial mission was to combine forces to provide marketing and education about the variety of African diasporan cuisines that are available.
In a press release, BRW said that “according to the Independent Restaurant Coalition, 500,000 restaurants and bars are faced with an uncertain future due to lost revenue and increased debt over the past two years. Additionally, 1.1 million minority-owned businesses often face heightened challenges and disparities when securing business funding. The shocking statistics championed Black Restaurant Week to revisit their ‘More Than Just a Week’ campaign.
