Bridges Program

The Bridges program gives BIPOC led companies the opportunity to present to retail buyers. This process provides invaluable retail experience, buyer feedback, and exposure – all of which help give you a foundation upon which to build. As we develop a more in-depth program, we are asking companies to self assess their current business state. Level One- Have a product or idea and want to learn how to get it on store shelves (Next Step - We will send you information with recommended steps and resources). Level Two- Have a retail-ready product, price sheet, and production capability ready to go (Next step - meet with potential buyers and gather feedback on your product). Level Three- Have a product(s) on shelves and want to scale your business through more wholesale and direct sales and accounts (Next Steps - we will meet with you to analyze potential sales channel opportunities and mentor connections).
