Who are we-
In 2020, the founder Nachand Trabue created the MELANnaire Marketplace to advance the economic development of local Black entrepreneurs. The MELANnaire Marketplace is a traveling retail bazaar where Black small business owners can sell their products & wares to consumers.
In 2024, we knew it was a greater need to develop a nonprofit arm that will provide the educational tools needed to help scale black businesses. This organization is called the MELANnaire Achievement Center (MAC)
Our mission is to empower and elevate Black -owned retail businesses through tailored support, strategic resources, and a collaborative community. We are dedicated to enhancing market opportunities for Black entrepreneurs. Our commitment is to champion inclusivity, drive sustainable growth and celebrate the achievements of Black business leaders. Through our commitment to excellence and inclusivity, we strive to help these businesses achieve their full potential and drive positive change within their communities.
Our impact-
Since 2020 we’ve been apart of nearly 500 bobs on their entrepreneurship journey. Now we can help a great percentage of them scale up through MAC.
MELANnaire Achievement Center’s Vision Statement
