A Black entrepreneur has built something powerful to help Black-owned businesses grow. He created an app called Miiriya, which works just like Amazon—but with a special twist. Miiriya lets you shop only from Black-owned businesses in one place. It’s available on both iOS and Android, and it’s making shopping more meaningful.
The word Miiriya means “thoughtful” in a West African language, and that’s exactly what this app is all about—being thoughtful about where your money goes. When you shop on Miiriya, your purchases support real people running real businesses. The best part? You buy directly from the Black-owned business’ own website. That means the business keeps all the money—no middleman.
Shopping on Miiriya is super easy. The app looks and works like big online stores, so you don’t have to learn anything new. You can find everything from clothes, beauty products, books, home goods, and more—all in one place.
But Miiriya isn’t just an online store. It recently added a new feature: a map that shows the physical locations of Black-owned businesses near you. Anyone can add a business to the map, making it a growing guide for finding and supporting local Black shops. This is especially helpful if you want to visit stores in person or support small businesses in your city.
The creator of Miiriya, a Black man with a big vision, wanted to make it easier for people to support the Black community through everyday shopping. With Miiriya, he’s not only helping businesses get more sales, but also helping shoppers connect with brands that care.
Miiriya is available for free on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. If you want to shop with purpose and support the Black community, this app is a great place to start.
So next time you’re thinking of shopping online, try Miiriya. Your support can help build stronger businesses and stronger communities—one order at a time.
