Upcoming For ME (Minority Entrepreneurs) Networking Small Business Vendor Expos:

Aug. 26, 2023 - Women in Business Vendor Expo

Nov. 25, 2023 - Small Business Saturday Holiday Market & Street Fair

We strive to empower minority owned businesses in Carteret County to connect with each other, grow with each other, and to mentor each other. We want to ensure that there is a future where minority owned businesses can see themselves represented. The Vendor Expo will take place in front of the McGee parking lot on the campus or Carteret Community College. There is no vendor fee, but you must bring your own table, tent, and chairs.

For ME Networking will focus on working with existing minority owned businesses and professionals to assist up and coming minority entrepreneurs. This assistance will be through support, collaboration, and mentoring.
