Small Business Saturday 2023

Small Business Saturday is coming up on November 25th. This annual event highlights the role that small businesses play in our society.

This year, Sugar & Kiki is supporting another woman-owned small business on Small Business Saturday, 321 Coffee. Here’s a bit of their story:

321 Coffee is a coffee shop and roaster built on inclusion. Based in Raleigh, NC, 321 currently employs over 50 adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). They are the ones roasting the coffee, taking the orders, and making the lattes. We are demonstrating the value of an inclusive business model.

I learned about 321 Coffee last year and was drawn to their mission (inclusion and opportunity for all - yes, please!) and business model (fun fact: my first business was a coffee shop). I hope you’ll join me in supporting the good work that they are doing for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities - 80% of whom are unemployed.

When you shop with Sugar & Kiki on Small Business Saturday, you’ll get a gift card to 321. Use it for the coffee lover on your list - who might be you! Choose from 321 Coffee’s 5 coffee blends, all roasted by their incredible staff in Raleigh.

Together, we can spread lots of small business love this holiday season.
