The State of Black
Women Owned Businesses
The Equity Gap
Despite being the most educated, Black women earn less money from employers, as entrepreneurs, as business owners, and when seeking venture capital.
- There is a considerable funding gap where Black women-owned businesses receive less capital, less often, with more scrutiny and at much higher interest rates.
- Black women-owned businesses average only $24,000 annually in revenues versus $142,900 for all women-owned businesses.
- Latina-owned businesses average only $51,000 annually, but this is still over 100% more than Black women-owned businesses.
- Overall, women-owned businesses average 67% less in annual revenues than their male counterparts – this number is even greater for Black women.
