I had the chance to check out SOKO Mrkt during ESSENCE Festival of Culture, and one of the most packed booths I encountered was the one held by Black Girl Vitamins. There was a line of people eager to get into the space, filled with bottles of the brand’s wellness offerings, multivitamins, beauty supplements, and more. There was even a woman dressed in a bottle costume, helping to draw more prospective customers.
But Black Girl Vitamins, which was founded in 2021 by Maxine Manager, doesn’t need help attracting customers. Created with the intention of addressing the unique health needs of Black women, the successful brand’s products are lauded for their effectiveness, and cover a whole host of conditions. That includes our prevalent Vitamin D deficiency issues, anemia, cholesterol struggles, PCOS and more. That’s why they sold out more than once during the festival, having to fly in product to meet the growing demand of festivalgoers.
Black Girl Vitamins did big numbers at EFOC, and ESSENCE Ventures founder and chairman Richelieu Dennis encouraged the brand to show up next at the SOKO Mrkts at Afropunk and Beautycon, so more great things are to come. And great things can come to you, too, if you decide to check out BGV’s products. Here are a few supplements customers can’t get enough of.
