A Special Thank You

For 28 years and for many reasons corporations, small business owners, religious institutions and
community agencies have supported the Black Business Directory and Resource Guide. Some believe
it makes good business sense for their brand to connect with a trusted outlet that
speaks to our specific audience. They understand the importance of
networking and the advantage that the Black Directory offers for name, face
and company recognition – it is their calling card at the fingertips of Black
Directory users.

Year after year, calls for the Black Directory have increased and now, in
addition to the printed Black Directory the updated ‘at your fingertips’
edition online at www.pittsburghblackdirectory.com responds instantly
to requests for the publication. Online one can read and download
the entire Black Directory! And, the listings offer up-to-date
business information. Visitors to the site can list their business or
agency at anytime and within hours the listing will be activated.

A bonus for everyone is the bold inspiration that the front

cover photos offer to the entire community and beyond. It says
from consultants to sole proprietors; from contractors to non-
profit agencies; from corporations to arts and education, African
Americans in the greater Pittsburgh region have a significant
presence. Those who are seeking the same path can see
themselves in the pictures and imagine one day the title or
business association under their own photo on the cover of the Black
Directory.

So, on behalf of the community, thank you to the advertisers,

and on behalf of the advertisers, thank you to the community.
Together we will make each other successful.

Let’s continue to make good use of the Greater Pittsburgh

Black Business Directory and Resource Guide by supporting
one another.

Thank you
