The first-ever Black Pound Day was held in the UK on June 27 2020, and the campaign has been growing in popularity ever since.
Black Pound Day was created by So Solid Crew member Swiss, who had the idea of celebrating Black-owned businesses to give the community an emotional and financial boost.
The campaign is a monthly event, inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement, which encourages people to buy products or services from Black-owned businesses on the first Saturday of every month.
