Boilerplate

BLKMKT is a discovery platform for minority-owned businesses, one city at a time. Through a native iOS app, a merchant dashboard, and a verified-creator content feed, BLKMKT connects shoppers to the restaurants, barbers, shops, services, and creators that anchor their neighborhoods. Founded in 2026 in Detroit, BLKMKT is free for shoppers and free for businesses to list. Product and service publishing requires a paid merchant plan (from $49/mo). Revenue comes from those plans and a 14% platform fee on in-app orders.
