With the inaugural #WeAllGrow Weekend Fest just around the corner, it’s an honor to introduce the Latina small businesses that will showcase their beautiful products at the Latina Makers Market (LMM), presented for a second consecutive year in partnership with Capital One.
We birthed the first Latina Makers Market in 2016 as our unique way to celebrate our community’s entrepreneurial surge. As LMM continues to evolve alongside us, it remains a staple opportunity for Latina founders to showcase their products at our events. Attendees can shop at the Latina Makers Market for anything from candles to organic skincare while interacting with the jefas behind the products they love. This is what Latinas supporting Latinas looks like!
Thank you to our partner, Capital One!
It’s a joy to partner with Capital One again to bring you this year’s Latina Makers Market and continue fulfilling our mission of amplifying our community’s creative potential.
Capital One believes in celebrating diversity and amplifying the achievements, triumphs, and contributions of communities like ours. In their roles as professionals, entrepreneurs, and students, Latinas and femme Latines are defining themselves and paving the way for the next generation’s success. Capital One recognizes that and wants to support it. In their mission to change banking for good, they invest in their communities and create products and experiences that further the vision of a world where everyone can flourish.
