The Power of Community & Mentorship in Native Entrepreneurship
For Native business owners, cultural values shape their leadership and business styles. Working with other Native businesses for mentorship and problem-solving creates stronger, more resilient enterprises. The SBA also offers crucial support with SBA-guaranteed loans and contracting assistance programs for Native-owned businesses. Together, we're building a brighter future.

Facts About Native-Owned Businesses
✨ Did you know there are around 300,000 businesses across the U.S. owned by American Indians or Alaska Natives? These businesses are powerhouse contributors to the economy, generating approximately $50 billion in revenue each year! Native-owned businesses not only strengthen our communities but also uphold the cultural values that make them unique.

November is Native American Heritage Month, a time to honor and celebrate the resilience, wisdom, and cultures of Indigenous communities. It's also a powerful reminder of the impact of Native entrepreneurship!
Native-owned businesses create jobs, drive economic self-determination, and preserve traditional skills and stories in each unique piece. Supporting Native entrepreneurs means investing in authentic, handmade goods with meaning and heritage behind every stitch, bead, and detail.
Let’s uplift and celebrate Native business owners this month and beyond. Shop Native. Support Indigenous voices.
