Combination of capital project and service/program
Research shows as it stands in 2021, the number of digital buyers is at about 2.14 billion. In other words, more than one out of every four people you see around you is an online shopper. As a store front, I’m missing those sales. A black owned business that has been operating for 17 years need support to compete with competitors. The number of online shoppers has been growing over the past few years we want to be a part of that growth. We know this virtual for stability.
