Black-Owned Businesses In Worcester, MA

About This Directory

A Worcester native and student at The College of the Holy Cross, Sienna Ablorh ‘21 was inspired by recent events surrounding black lives, the Black Lives Matter Movement, and a need to further uplift black voices and black businesses. Sienna seeked the help of friends, one of which was Dorean Asuako, a Worcester native herself and also a member of the class of 2021 at Holy Cross, who was excited to help and has been on board throughout the entire process. Both Sienna and Dorean hope to spread awareness of all the Black-Owned businesses that can be found right in their own hometown and in their own way, participate in the “reviving” of Worcester that the city is undergoing- per the city’s plans for Worcester 2021. Dorean and Sienna's expectation for this document is for it to be essentially a community effort, making this a working list that these two young Black women will update as frequently as possible.

Contributions of Black-owned Worcester and/or Worcester-based businesses to the list can be done by submitting a form using this link:

Contribute to the Black Owned Businesses in Worcester, MA directory

For further inquiries, email the owners by reaching out to Sienna at siennaablorh99@gmail.com.

We would like to thank all the community members who have already helped and a thank you in advance to everyone who contributes to the growth of this document. - Sienna and Dorean
