BLACK WOMAN-OWNED MANUFACTURER AWARDED HISTORIC CONTRACT TO SUPPLY 4,400 HOSPITALS WITH TEXTURED HAIR PRODUCTS
Ameka Coleman, founder and CEO of Strands of Faith, a Black-owned beauty brand dedicated to providing clean hair care solutions for textured hair and promoting mental wellness and self-love, has achieved a significant milestone. Her company has been awarded a contract with Premier Inc., a major hospital network that is listed on the NASDAQ, to supply its textured hair products to their hospitals across the United States.
Ameka is one of the first Black entrepreneurs in the new category of "Ethnic, Scalp, and Skincare" to receive such a contract, and the partnership will allow her company to expand its distribution network while increasing its visibility in the healthcare industry.
